Revelation, Meditation and the News

I made chicken noodle soup for dinner tonight, homemade. No one's sick, exactly. I'm still in shock over my friend, Star, and her revelation. I'm just glad she's getting help for her addiction problem. That shows real spirit and courage, which she has in spades. I guess I'm not handling it too well, though. I worry about her enough as it is. I worry about the people I love, I can't help it. Especially the ones with health problems.

Today I did a chanting meditation for Ancient Rites. We were supposed to chant a word like, "OM", except related to Norse Mythology. That was a real eye-opener. Instead of thinking about the past or the future or things I couldn't control I was pulled right into the present moment. I realized that instead of waiting for the perfect moment, to do anything, the moment is now. In other words if I want to do something or share something or say something, the moment is now. It is so good for me to stop and just smell the incense. LOL! Like smelling the roses! Then I wrote it up and submitted it to the boards.

My brother, Jed, came over and we talked and ate veggies. He mostly just played on the computer, looking at news sites. I get enough news just with Yahoo news and reading the occasional article. I'm glad I don't have TV. TV news is horrible, all negativity. I don't need that in my life. I'm really trying to be a more positive person. I look through faintly rose-colored glasses. Literally! That's all for now. Have a good night anyone who's reading this.
