Thought training

I am working on controlling my mind. It has a tendency to wander and lollygag about. I sometimes want a piercing, focused, intense stream of ideas and association that build a reality of my own making. That used to happen in a time remembered and longed for. But now its presence is absence from my experience and I will seek it in my dreams.

Thought for a day

Today for the first time this winter it has snowed enough in New Hampshire to use my snowblower. The weather is creeping me out. It has been so warm as to render the term winter synonomous with late spring. If we don't get some severely cold and snowy days soon, it will confuse the animals and render the concept of spring irrelevant.
