I couldn’t quite figure out why I was so groggy yesterday, and had a hard time focusing.
As with many questions in life, though, the answer came to me at 3am … this time, in the form of an awful stomach-ache. I’d been coming down with something.
I wasn’t happy to realize I was sick, as of course I had plans on what to accomplish today. But I quickly remembered that sort of resistance wasn’t helping me get well. So I turned my focus on taking care of myself, and I’m getting ready to rest once more.
When mortals are alive, they worry about death.
When they’re full, they worry about hunger.
Theirs is the Great Uncertainty.But sages don’t consider the past.
And they don’t worry about the future.
Nor do they cling to the present.
And from moment to moment they follow the Way.– Bodhidharma
