Monk Life - Day 5

Ran 4 miles in the morning then walked to the library for 4 hours of chess study. I had a breakthrough insight on my 4 mile walk after the run, I decided to make the damaged and dying sky a positive rather than a sad negative, and I decided to achieve this allowing the toxic white materials in the sky to remind me that death to all is imminent, and thus I need to focus my mind on my breath so that I may achieve inner clarity and peace. So the thing which so disturbs me is now going to be my meditation bell, and it being a daily constant, always there in the sky, will be the best tolling bell of all, bringing me back to the present moment, knowing that there will not be many moments left to come.
