Sharon Friedman – Vigilance and Tranquility

Recognise where and when you are. This is easy to feel with a few examples. Consider you are in a new job and are used to doing things one way. It is obvious that keeping your old habits like a comfortable shirt with no added value will not aid you. If you are in a seminar and want to gain something from it outside of parading your system and ego adapt to the rules and guides given by the eyes and ears and anything else. A bulge in one side of the stomach is not the gut but maybe a cellphone or a gun so don’t hit there with your hard knuckles. A person who strides with a oudioble sound is wearing a certain type of shoes or is heavy in some way. If you hear a scrape of metal behind you, don’t be brave, look and this also tells you something about the commitment of the person behind you.  Matelic taste in your mouth can be the residue of gunfire on an inclose. We feel a lot more than our mind lets us know if that makes sense or not. Undressing the world from the picture we want it to be allows us to see more with every breath.
