  This morning,   came through immediately.    Journal Entry

 

like another dimension.   like a breath,  a vibration,  so subtle,  an almost imperceptible     shimmer     rising up,  out,  of the tree,  branch,   rock,  plant,    even the plastic chairs….it's like they are talking to each other.

it began with Lichen which was simultaneous with Sharon Salzberg's       Real Happiness Meditation Challenge 

and has continued,  daily,  more and more   today being day 18.    Will try to give word to it,  beginning here and then continuing as i can?      Her meditations,  short   5 some minutes     that are building upon each other,  becoming strong.

At Jack Flash's gate:    where i begin the days,  every day feeding him then leaning on/into the gate and looking  over to the huge pine tree where those two lizards appeared each morning for months,  showing me lizard things and tho they have been gone now since  Fall,   each morning still,  i call out to them…….      Friends!   hello    Uno,  Dos!      I love you,   Thank you.        every morning still i say this         thinking they will return

and i listen to Jack chew his hay and look out off over the rim of this hill    at the trees along it's edge   up into the sky that extends far and far up and beyond          This has CHANGED.    because

with Salzberg's  teaching….i breathe.    i try to find myself Present.   in the breath.  in the moment.   JUST    the moment.   and  as i stood there the other day,   a grey,  heavy,  overcast day,      there suddenly was a sensation of my cheek bone,  my temple,  left cheek bone,  left temple of light and warmth and i FELT               SUN       SUNlight       touch me.     almost imperceptibly,  but clear….touch me     for real    i    felt it           and then only after it happened,   i realized that i didn't STAY with it…..      Mind took me over to his water tub that needed changing and i began the scenario about whether now or later in the day    and   i just

left       the touch of  the SUN

for those thoughts    and then had an understanding of how  i am used to experiencing things almost as like    Scenery…….   oh!.  beauty full trees        oh! sky     like uhhhhhh,   backdrops,    scenery        and suddenly being aware of  it's       Livingness

and since

as in this pic        the awareness of the Livingness of it all

this   "view"   out the window in the morning,   the roundness of the trunks of the Morning Tree,   the dragon bamboo wind chime,    the being out there,  an animal,   that i live with every day,   not just      goat     but          the beingness of him,   an added Dimension  

i want to remember just this point in time        because it's changing               I want to be AWARE    as it changes.   This is just trying….

    I am sitting at the kitchen table, the sun finding its way through the upper windows and straight into my eyes … something to be avoided … but once I have finished blog reading, I will move to my stitching chair and welcome the warmth of the sun on my shoulders … my hair will warm to its touch, and I will sink into the simple joy of sunlight
