9th October - a window of opportunity

These days I don't really have to look out for things to be done, there are already enough of them waving at me to keep busy. And this morning I oversleep... and what happens? - I immediately see the consequences of this, how is this going to affect the day and other people. Darn! I've learnt these consequences can be subtle, but still very real.

So during the sitting which I practice in my sister's flat today I decide to let go of the concert tonight, that's my price! It should give me enough time to catch up.

I visit my father in the hospital, as usual in the afternoon and his recovery continues well! His eldest brother Jan is visiting from Wrocław today. I make lunch for us and my mother.

The progress with renovating our block of flats on the 'H' estate, nearly done:



Each estate is named after a letter of an alphabet. 'H' is for Honorata, a female name.

I feel slothful and bit low on energy today - usually, I find some practical work for the house a good remedy for it. Not that I do it to feel better, as it was going to be done anyway, but this ordering of the space gives something I need now.

So the free time in the evening is used for arranging the space for tomorrow's guitar meeting, JotD and others.

A highlight of the day is an evening with the old friends Agnieszka & Magda, actually it turns into late night! We traveled Ireland together in the Summer 2003 and here we meet again now, just three of us. We have very fond memories of those travels, but we don't really recall much of that time tonight (except some acknowledgments) instead we discuss the current hot issues, for example - meditation. So we talk about it, but also catch opportunity for having some actual experience! After all, it's easy to get stucked in words and intellectual ideas and this can't be a substitute for a real practice. For some of us, it was it's the first experience of this kind tonight, but for me there was a sense that we are all beginners, really.

This event was in the air for some time, it actualized and feels like a beginning of something new...
