Today's thoughts

We are three and a bit weeks away to the shortest day of the year.  I for one am upbeat about this because then the days start to get longer again.  This year in I Ho Chuan has been challenging.  I have had a harder time this year than last year with the physical requirements we need to accomplish. Having said that, from a mental or spiritual perspective I don't think I have been more alive in my life.

I am spending more time in thought.  And I mean true thought.  Challenging my preconceived view of the world.  Has the body of knowledge I have accumulated over my lifetime served me well?  Am I interpreting things around me from preconceived thoughts or am I critically looking at things and formulating opinions and my thought processes on true knowledge?  I am not sure I have a factual answer, but because I am challenging my own though process, I am headed in the right direction.

I have found that with true deep thinking that i am drawn closer to and stay in the moment. Happiness is believed to be found in the moment, and my overriding goal in life is to be happy, so being in the moment is where I need to be.
