Goodnight friends! Resolutely sub-zero temperatures all day, the kind of chill that robs the air of all scent and hardens earth to a kind of almost springy, rubber-like unyielding density. Every step over fallen leaves or grass, both thickly rimed, gives a soft grinding crunch. Paler skies, slowly covered by thickening wing-like bands of speckle-edged cloud until a thin, soft sleety snow began after dark.
Much the same lack of lasting stamina or concentration, but being more attuned now to this pattern I was a little more able to co-ordinate myself to use the unpredictable bursts of energy I had – prepping some food, doing some stretching and exercise when I could.
May we find, welcome and savour the simple, direct positive sensations, of food, of touch of warmth, our embodiment brings us today!
