A Sedate Life
It may seem to a casual observer that I don’t do much more than sit around, smoke a pipe, and watch a lot of YouTube. I may not be much of a participant in life, but I am not just a casual observer. I don’t interact much on social media and probably don’t need a smartphone. But I’m here more for others than myself.
I interact when I feel it necessary to do so. And I write mostly for my mind. I don’t find an active social life necessary. I do stuff. But meditation and a quiet life IS purpose. I lead by example. Sometimes being quiet is necessary. I’ve had all the noise I’ve wanted from life. I listen. Maybe according to my wife, not very well. But I listen.
It is my primary task to listen. I let the Angels speak to me and I respond when necessary. I enjoy a quiet life these days. Sometimes there is just too much noise from life. And at the age of almost 74 a quiet life is needed. I listen to the quiet. I grew up with a lot of noise. In life I experienced a lot of noise. I see the quiet as a friend—not a foe.
I’m friends with the quiet. It’s what I enjoy most. Yet I share my space and when I do, I listen. It’s Sunday morning and I’m smoking my Angel pipe as I listen to Sunday Morning Coffee. I’m working on others around me. I focus primarily on them. And I drink my morning coffee and bask in the quiet of the morning. Thank you for your time and Peace to each one of you.
