the beginnings of a new ritual is forming. with no more commute and places to go in the morning, the freedom of a morning ritual is open before me. i tend to like the mornings a lot more than late evenings. from the first cup of tea to the morning meditiation, it feels so freshing and invirgorating. as i lite the my favorite tibetan incense, i am reminded of the peace that eludes me more and more everyday. it had been almost three days ago since i last medidated and it’s definitely taken a toll on the […]
