Many times, I just want to sit upon the seawall and not think… to just forget that there is a world where I have to work, where there is anything of purpose to be done… to just sit and stare out to sea.
The problem with me going and sitting and relaxing, is that it is at just those times, when my mind is almost blank that all the thoughts that I’ve been avoiding or maybe not even thinking about come rushing to the fore and I cannot block them out.
When I sit upon the shore and stare out to see, when I enjoy the sea-breeze, the open-ness of the ocean before me, I think, and my thoughts are somewhat clearer, less muddled…
This was one of those brief moments… and I took a photo to remind me to try once in a while to leave the world behind, and breathe.

I have read somewhere that modern society is headed to an “always on” culture where you brain gets no downtime. It is proving detrimental in a lot of ways. Hang on to your meditation time as tightly as you can.
I believe you… too much “access” in this electronic world 😀
