Sometimes it's nice to ponder. Healthy even. And my post yesterday about songwriting must have got me thinking about how I spend my time.
So here I go, pondering my ideal life.
Some context though. I am not 26 any more, so I'm not thinking careers. I have a wonderful family, so I'm not thinking relationships (although I could always be a better husband and father).
No, I'm more thinking of what I wish I could do more of, in a context of needing to work less. Say, because I got rich through posting on steemit.
Maybe it's a dream...
Anyway, its all about doing more of what I love.
Hanging out with my daughter, and having fun with my wife.
Writing songs (there it is again, just like in my post yesterday, that whole of body shiver, that feeling telling me Yes! I want to do that!).
Playing guitar and nailing my parts in the songs I have written with my bandmates (and again!).
Writing fiction ( I love this. I really love it. I used to get that feeling when I contemplated writing as well - before I started doing it and realised I was actually not too bad).
Meditating and being mindful.
Dreaming, and pondering. Wandering and getting lost in nature and the city.
Enjoying the company of friends and seeing more of my mum, brothers and sister.
Swimming in, and walking on and hanging out at the beach.
Giving back to a world that has given so much.
Being happy.
May I be filled with loving kindness. May I be well.
May I be peaceful and at ease. May I be happy.
(Jack Kornfield - A Path with Heart)
May all beings be happy.
