Square One

I made some interesting choices for the TI including a number of things that I was going "to do" and a number of things I was going to "not do." One of the "not do" things was "watch television" and to that end I have unplugged the main culprit. What fascinates me today is what happens to my typical/usual pattern of household circumambulations when these disciplined parameters have been set in place. Thus far, I've had a very interesting and productive day, not frantic and frivolously busy but things are getting done and I like that. I also made a commitment to eschew the easy chair in my living room in favor of a more ergonomically sensible but not so comfortable wooden model. This has required a re-organization of music stands and guitars and I am feeling a bit discombobulated at certain moments. The prevailingl feeling is that this is all good and is ultimately a part of and beneficial to my Zen practice.

Thanks to the folks that came up with the idea for the blog and did the work to set it in motion.
