If You Wondered What the Previous Post Was All About...
This is kind of backwards to the entry you see below, but I didn't want to backdate this and have it missing from my friends' friend pages.
Anyway,
mirrani was home because of the ice and watching GMA they showed this book.
The Book of Awakening:Having the Life You Want by Being Present to the Life You Have.
It's a book that has a thought for each day... a poem, or a meditation, or a piece of writing that you can think about, work with, use as a prompt for your own meditations or writings - however you'd like.
Mir explains that much better than I can in her entry here
Then there are little activities or exercises that follow each day's entry in the book that you can do to to continue the thought for the day by yourself... add to it, or internalise it... however you want to use it.
Mir invited me to work with her as she uses the book for her LJ entries and I am happy to say that I'm excited to do that. So Distance is the first of my responses to what was written in the book.
If anyone would like to join the two of us, I'm sure if you read the quotation at the beginning of either of our entries, you can get the gist of it, and even if you don't buy the book for yourself, (and I can recommend it as being pretty awesome actually), we can help you if you get in touch with us.
Happy reading.
Anyway,
