The Mimosa Tree

Yesterday I chose to walk a new route to the cemetery, cutting through a couple of parks and walking a mile along a one lane country road. When I reached the edge of the cemetery I found a "secret" entrance, a single track walking path through a small thicket of trees. When I entered the back edge of the cemetery I found it was secluded from the main road. I spotted a Mimosa tree in bloom and decided to meditate under it. The sky was a sharp cloudless blue and the shade cooled me from the summer heat. I sat comfortably for a while, then decided to open a book by Ajahn Chah - I read "You have been prisoner to your habits your whole lives. If you didn't want to get free, why would you have come here?"

I am beginning to draw 3-4 hours a day.
