Day 38 – DON’T PANIC!
It’s hard to be in the moment when the moment sucks.

Today’s post – a poem: yesterday I walked barefoot in the rain my feet got cold but still I was happy amid a stormy life there is the foot-feel of wet ground and rain between my toes Looking forward to your poetic replies. I’ve missed the sohbet-ing.
Was rolling through a new playlist of slow songs on my ipod before settling down to sit today. A line from Keep Rollin, a Scott Cook song, stood out for me. Don’t think I’d ever really heard it before: life keeps widening and deepening.
Wow. Well yesterday was a big deal. Broke 10,000 views on my website last night. Still trying to settle after all that excitement. Not only is 10,000 just a big number (it’s frickin’ HUGE!!!) but it’s special too. In Chinese culture 10,000 is a myriad, and has connotations of infinite and powerful.
Garden at twilight. Everything pruned back cleared out. No barren wasteland. There’s fecundity in this emptiness. Seemingly harsh cuts make room to grow. Resting in a space of gratitude for the sharp edge of shears.
