Perpendicular

Tonight I spent a half hour repairing my zafu. Some of the seams have been splitting open in one area, so I stitched it together in one line, then in another, to keep the buckwheat hulls from spilling out. I guess it's a little significant, that I have been practicing so long my zafu needs repair. It's also a sign of my shoddy sewing skills, but I won't dwell on that. It could also use more buckwheat hulls, but, sadly, I don't have any nearby.

Another busy day; I really need to spend more time thinking about how to be more efficient at my job, so it doesn't spill out so much, the way it does. Maybe this is an impossible task - "the inbox is always full." But I can at least feel more ordered, more in balance with myself.

And, with that, I have run out of thoughts for the evening. Everything about me is pulling towards tomorrow. I need to do my best to be here today, and then be there tomorrow. Today can be wonderful, exciting a love-affair of its own. And it is. And what today is, is thinking about tomorrow.

With that, to bed.

Stay tuned, all.
