Growing In Meditation Day 3- “Distractions Are Catching Up With Me”
A self-reflective meditation journey for 9 days
Remember this, if you remember nothing else:
Your spiritual self is more important than your fleshly self. Never sacrifice that time of solace for anything else.
I did not meditate on Thanksgiving Day but promised myself I would later.
Later came. I did NOT meditate.
I missed the next day and day the after.
Today, I said to myself, before I let this day slide by, I WILL meditate. So, I quickly set my meditation timer online for 5 minutes, and even if my rabbit was drinking her water loudly, I went ahead and closed my eyes…
I was severely distracted.
Not just by sounds, but my own thoughts. I kept thinking of the delectable Thanksgiving food. The family showing love to one another and everyone helping out. In my mind, they were shiny faced and happy.
Then, my rabbit began chomping loudly on her grass and clawing at her hay feeder. It was like a thunder boom and I almost went over there to take the hay feeder away.
