a great possibility...

there is a great possibility i will repeat my words and offerings here on a regular occasion. this being i cannot recall what i ate yesterday, therefore it stands to reason i surely will not recall what i blogged a week ago. i like to think my inability to have finely tuned recall senses is because i am super zen and live only in the moment.

each day is a fresh lifetime of 24 hours and i am going to be fully committed to it, i have no time to dally in the past, nor fret about the future, i am busy immersed in the here and now.

have you noticed, often when asked "how are you?" we respond with "oh very well {usually a fib} and terribly busy too". i would answer "all good here {sometimes a fib}, and terribly busy contemplating". i just love the ridiculousness of saying 'busy contemplating', i think that in its self is cause for course correcting. course correcting is my favorite thing to do of late. in any given moment i can take a breath, course correct, avoid the inevitable wreckage to come and realign with kindness and love. this is perhaps key to being a householder practitioner.

​i am getting a little sidetracked here, course correcting to 'in a nutshell', just to say, i may say things several times, show a photo more than once but let me be clear, it has nothing at all to do with aging gray cells.

oh huzzah! what a way to begin my Monday!

I also truly do not like the 'how are you' question and wish it coudl be stricken from our collective conversations. So many finer ways of saying hello . . . and? You made me laugh. :)

Aurelie! i think we need to come up with a little list of greetings that go beyond the 'how are you' and then test them out!

Ha! You made me laugh... nothing to do with ageing gray cells, only full Zen immersion in the present moment - I foresee this to be very helpful for me from now on! As to "How are you?" - It is an odd expression indeed, especially since most people do not wait for an answer after asking this question, leaving the questionee to ponder in loneliness his/her own state of being. Louise Gluck once mentioned that her answer to this question most often was something like "really?" - I kind of like that... :)

I will just greet you with the same words I felt upon seeing that you blogged: “so lovely to see you again!”

I sometimes reply, ‘funny you should ask, I was just contemplating/wondering/pondering/asking this myself! Are you thinking well?’

Sometimes I just go ‘great — and you?’

i love this answer Cherie! i can't help but wonder what most people would respond especially followed by the "are you thinking well?"
