the meditation
Friday, May 11th, 2007In every day, the miraculous unfolds in the form of my persistence, the carrying-on of my heart and head. Today, for now, I am a citizen of the living world, however far I or this world have fallen. I wake, drink coffee, watch the news, watch strangers, sweat in the sunlight, cool in the shade, participate in the hundred million gestures that constitute life in this century. I cast a shadow, have weight, understand this moment as now and not perhaps or almost. It's all so common, so quotidian and unremarkable, but at times, it is more than i can imagine.
