Meditation is Key

-

 I wrote about this yesterday.  It doesn’t matter what one thinks about while meditating.  For some it might be Bible verses.  For some it might be thinking about reading material they can reflect upon.  But time alone is key.  I lost some of my time this past month due to celebrations.  But now I have more time since the celebrations are over.  

My Angels gave me a lot to think about.  I’ve had too much on my mind lately.  But I am getting back into my groove.  I have a lot to meditate upon.  But now I am thinking my wife and I have reached our golden years in life.  Do I feel differently now that we are there?  In a way I do.  My mind isn’t as sharp and I’m noticing a slight decline.  

My wife enjoys going over old photos.  I enjoy reflecting on the past 31years.  I could wish I made more money in my life.  But that is wishful thinking.  I try to spend my time looking forward and not backwards, but the present is always best.  If my Angels want me to do more they will arrange for me to do that.  Right now I have done enough.  

My Angels have made sure I always have everything I need.  I’m always thankful in my meditations.  Always.  They actually saved my life not just twice but three times.  My life has meaning and purpose beginning with wife and family.  Then it’s friends.  The meaning of life is found in life itself.  

So, I ponder the importance of meditation this morning as I smoke my Nording Number 3 pipe with some Autumn Evening.  My coffee this morning is Stumptown Founders coffee.  Thank you for your time and Peace to each one of you.

It's About Balance

 I seem to struggle week after week as to how much football I am going to watch.  There for awhile I was watching all the analysis of the collegiate games and decided I was simply paying too much attention to football.  I cut way back last week and as the season begins to unfold I have to ask myself how much is too much?  I didn't watch one pro game last weekend and hadn't followed the analysis of collegiate games all week.   Then I found myself having a kind of withdrawal and decided I can watch whatever football I want to watch as long as it doesn't interfere with my Spirituality.  But at what point is too much too much?  My wife and I talked about this last week as I cut back on watching and we both decided that I like football and I shouldn't have to be thinking about how much or how little I watch.  I enjoy the games.  College more than the pro's.   I don't have to watch the analysis, but I like College Game Day and I like...

 I can never predict how any of my posts are going to be received but I do get a reaction from my wife quite often, but I'll post about my Spirituality thinking I've said enough and apart from a few other subjects my Spirituality posts do quite well.  I had yesterday's tobacco review done a few days ago and saved it for yesterday and again, it seems my tobacco reviews do quite well.  Then I wrote about my age and it seemed no one cared that much   My wife says that it's my titles for my subjects So, while I have so many subjects to choose from, today it is about how my tobacco choices influence my Spirituality or do they?  Not really.  It's just that I can't smoke my pipes without tobacco.  I could be smoking a lot of things.  Like the question asked when someone thinks you are crazy, " What have I been smoking?"  Well, at least you know.  It's never any "funny" stuff.  You could be asking what I've been drinking.  I have ...

Old Ads

-
 My wife liked my post about old things we remember.  And a lot of what I remembered was good.  But there was some bad things back then that are different today.  Back in the 50's and 60's and even into the 70's advertising in both magazines and TV were incredibly sexist.  I don't have the space in one post to list all the ads, but really they can be summed by saying that a lot of advertising was incredibly sexist. I 've mentioned my wife lit my pipe for me just a few times, but these days she can barely tolerate the aroma of my most flavorful Aromatic tobacco.  She liked everything I said in that post except my mentioning Old Professor pipe tobacco.  Ironically, I like Old Professor the most and she hates it the most.  So, when I mentioned it, she did too.  But back in the day a man smoking a pipe was his lifestyle.  Today, it's a hobby, and not just for men. But too back in the day, no woman could walk down the street without some perv...
