spiritual prescription
Mar. 30th, 2007 01:03 pmI have just realized I need to exhaust myself physically.
I've been exercising myself to the limits emotionally, and wearing myself out with coffee and not much sleep, and even working the noggin to the point of rubbery brains now & then. But it's been a fortnight since I went & used up the better part of the energy of my plain ol' pure muscles, bloodstream, lungs.
One of the lessons of this stage of my life has been how very good for me that occasional practice can be.
When life is so clearly instructive about something, why do we sometimes have such a hard time learning the lesson?
