I love the idea of a walking meditation. There are many places to walk here where I love, either up the hill, down towards the river, or right out the back door. Yesterday I walked down by the creek. The sound of the water trickling over the rocks, the stand of baby evergreen trees, the dry pine needles on the ground, the different rocks; all of these are the quiet miracles of nature. I think of my grandsons at times like these. When they were little, nature walks were one of our favorite activities.
Writing is sorting. Writing down the stream of consciousness gives us a way to respect the mind, to choose among and harness thoughts, to interact with and change the contents of who we think we are. And that is what the spiritual journey is: a major change, over time, in who we think we are, followed by a corresponding change in what we believe ourselves capable of doing. >>>>>Christine Baldwin Life's Companion: Journal Writing as a Spiritual Quest>>>
