The days have been cold, the skies completely white, have not seen the sun in days, not even a speck of blue. These are the end days so I continue to sow peace inside my mind.
Due to lack of sun and warmth my energy has been flagging, most in this city of toxicity is undoubtedly filled with various ailments. I tried to run yesterday but failed due to the lack of sun and heat, today I wore winter clothing and willed myself to run 2 1/2 miles. Was too tired to walk to the library so slept for 3 hours in the afternoon. Took a walk in the evening and ended up going to the library without my chess set, I just wanted to wander about the books and checked out 4 books, 2 by Maugham and 2 by Jules Renard.
Meditated a short time today after my long nap, it is easier to do when I am don't have to follow a strict schedule. Incense arrived today, it will perhaps motivate me to meditate for longer periods of time because I like to time meditation sessions based on the burning of one stick.
