2/12/23 Ants on a dead bird cc

ALL

 has been preparation

 study- experience - effort - practice

 to what end the end

 its not the end but each instant

 well lived in gratitude

  attention and a piece full acceptance

 of how temporary this little outburst of perception

 that speaks in the first person 

in all activity's always 

joy - attention - gratitude 

this will be my best performance 

 I have never cleaned the kitchen this well 

this peacefully before

  with this much attention no regrets for time lost

 no thoughts of other matters

 rhythmic breathing soft body no more effort than needed 

no activity above me no activity below me

 grateful attention that's all always aware 

that all roads end in the same place

 ants on a dead bird 

ant hill on a plow blade

 50 years - larger trees

 dead friends and family

 all is well
