RE: Patience (An admission of good things to come)
I want to know more about the kid that wrecked the car a second time. How did they finally tell you? What were their eyes doing when you yelled or were mad?
I like this poem; there are a few line's if you edit I'd suggest you cut. Mainly remove clichés. Say it differently. Like light at the end of a tunnel. Refer to it without saying it maybe?
Keep it going!
Indeed. I still struggle with the cliches. I like your comment about digging deeper beyond just scratching the surface (darn cliche again!). I really appreciate the feedback... :)
You're welcome! Recognition is the first step. I've worked out a few things by noticing them too. It is a constant process of improvement.
Do you know why mediation is so effective? It isn't about breathing, or centering yourself. That is just, ancillary benefits.
Meditation is practicing making your mind thing about what you want it to. Focusing on breath is an exercise like running laps.
See, you think about your breath. It is boring. You're going to fail at it. the exercise is to force your brain to stay focused on your breath for longer and longer periods. This lets you get better at focusing on what you want to focus on in the rest of your day.
Sorry, total tangent, but your comment and talk of cliche's reminded me of this. I hope it helps in some small way.
