use and rejoice!
Saturday, October 14th, 2006I am an awareness in control over one physical body.
The physical body is equipped with various tools and properties, and goes through various stages of fitness and abilities - from the moment it is given, to the moment it is taken.
If I get into situations where I feel a pressure to do something I know or feel is not making adequate and balanced use of the body I was given, I am liberated by the simplicity of just not doing it, not consuming it, not watching it, not saying it.I feel very lucky to sense it in a bottom-up, as opposed to a top-down way. I don’t feel as if I was taking something away from this body, but that I am giving it a purpose to its existence!
Putting this body to good use is an ongoing and very fulfilling challenge and great exercise for my awareness!
