We Meet Again
I’ve been dreaming of this moment forever. She actually texted me back. And she wanted to meet. It’s winter now and I plan to meet her upstairs at McLaughlin’s this time, not on the patio. I brought her another bottle of her favorite wine. A $60 bottle about two feet tall as a joke. Gawd I have missed this woman. It’s been 8 months since we last met. Then she ghosted me. None of the pain and frustration of these past months matters right now though. I’m about to see her. I order my wine and have half a glass down before I hear footsteps on the wooden stairs. I’m so lucky right now. The six tables around me are empty. We have a balcony view of the restaurant below and I chose to sit at a table in the middle, not too close to either the balcony or the stairs. Privacy matters.

The Truth
For example. Thoughts become actions, become your life. VS. You are not your thoughts. You are your actions. Taking control of your mind is quite different from watching it frolic and play, fall down and hurt itself, get back up, play again, etc... and not interact with it. If I am watching my thoughts come from my mind, and I do not believe or entertain them, who am I? Am I my spirit?
