Meditation Lesson Two

Hello Everyone:

Right now, I'm waiting for the trusty laptop to finish installing the latest operating system. The screen keeps saying "About 33 minutes remaining" as I silently curse it for being so slow.  I wish there was a way to speed it up. Now, we're down to 32 minutes.a Yippee. In general, I've cursing the WiFi connection at the Business Center today for being slow. Oh yes, I did the second meditation introductory course this morning. I found myself getting a little distracted with unrelated things. Yet, after I was done, I felt more focused on my tasks and the headache I had was all gone. Cool.  It certainly made me a little more tolerant of mom's pre-Passover insanity. I even don't feel like taking a metal bat to the trusty laptop for being so slow. At least I remembered to save what I writing about. I'm also cursing myself for clicking a install and interrupting my flow. We're now down to 31 minutes. Thank goodness I found a new podcast to listen to. I'm not worried about getting the post done. It will, maybe not today but it will get done. Getting back to meditation, I like the idea of sitting for ten minutes a day and looking inward. I can gain some focus and clarity on my day. Of course, today is not quite an example of focus and clarity but "Andy," the friendly British voice on Headspace, says expect perfect. I never do. I think if you expect perfect in anything, you end up disappoint and make yourself crazy in the process. The install is moving along. Tomorrow the cleaners are coming back, to do the kitchen and living room. The one and only one thing I like about Passover is not having a lot housework to do. I can definitely do without everything else. Alright, more later.
