ironing meditation
these glimpses of peace...
the feel of the iron in one hand, the smoothness of cloth in the other. the warmth, the sound of the steam hissing softly. the light above me. nina simone from the other room. my breathing. slow, deep. the floor beneath my feet. one pair of pants. two pairs of pants. one shirt. two shirts. three shirts.
sure, the thoughts come, as they do.
how many shirts am i going to have to iron? are there any in the closet? i'm hungry. i can't eat now though. what am i going to eat for dinner tomorrow i really want a dessert but i shouldn't. am i being premature in deciding on psychiatry so early?
but they merely flicker, and a peace calms them softly to a natural solution.
ironing meditation.
wow.
i share these experiences with you, not to preach, but because this growth within me is wonderful, and i want my friends and loved ones to know about it.

I too have spent last night ironing - although a considerbale greater amount of shirts (about 14?) and only one pair of pants (:-)).
ironing is great.
may be we can do it for a career.
it focuses the bosy on simple yet artistic process. and strips away the mind to its core. where u can exist peacefully... with others... and yourself....
wow.
