The loveliest paths to walk can be those that are neither in the full hot sun nor in the dark shade of dense cover, but rather in the shimmering sunlight that filters through many leaves. A flash of white hot insight can be amazing, but mostly we come to understand the world in in bits and snatches, filtered through our daily experiences of the world.
What path leads you to bits of daily insight?
When the timing is right, I like to have the alarm go off in the morning and then allow for perhaps 15-20 minutes to lie still and think about the day and evening ahead. Rather than try to plan the night before or even days before, it seems that thoughts are fresher for me to do the plans I am most interested in at that time. Of course it is not always in exact order nor can it be. The day comes to life; I do the same and then it unfolds in its own way, but bits of my early morning thoughts are usually part of the final result before I go to bed at night.
