Knowing when it's time to move on, where at work, or in your personal life is difficult and challenging. It is something each individual has to contemplate on their own. #moveon #contemplate #life #difficult

People who actively observe and consciously influence their thoughts, emotions, and behavior, people who learn to use their minds skillfully and consciously observe the stimuli of their sensory organs, not only see the world as it really is, but also become more stable in their #personality.
People who learn to explore their inner universe, to #contemplate and #meditate on #values and #truths, find inner #balance. They become strong-willed, steadfast, and have #character.

There are 3 questions for reflection in this section of #ContemplativeKnitting The first is: how big is your #orbit (meaning the world you see & interact with on a daily/regular basis)?

My answer is twofold: 1) my orbit isn’t as big as it used to be & 2) it’s not as big as I want it to be. There may be a third facet in there, too. As I discovered recently when my dad died, my orbit is bigger than I realize.

And honestly, I’m just leaving those answers there, ATM because, although I read the section days ago & have been thinking about my answers since then. I still feel the need to #contemplate it a little longer. Maybe take a #walk or #knit another row….

Dear Friends of giving up sending emails,

I can not do it any more. TOO STUPID for EMAIL sending? 😔

Que?

When did it get so hard and complex to use #Thunderbird? You go in and change the recommended settings provided by your ISP? That is it right?

Apparently not. In the end I had to go in and use their centralised outsourced cloud software just to read an email. 🙄

AY CARAMBA! [lobster swearing into the void)🤯

My only point of wisdom is the 8 Fold Path of #Buddhism in particular:

6. Wrong effort
If it's hard, you probably need to take it easy.

7. Wrong #mindfulness
Empty your mind of mindfulness. Be Mindless 🦋

Pah! Think I may have to turn myself over. Like a compost heap! ☯️

Meanwhile, have a great day. Swear at your computer. It can take the strain! 🙊

I am off to sit in the sun and #contemplate my naval... wait a minute, I have no navy... 🙃

“Every child is a Sphinx; none knoweth its secret but itself; presumeth Ignorance to initiate Isis? Let the Sphinx brood on its secret, until its hour; one can assist only by leaving it to contemplate existence. Let it behold all things in Earth and Heaven.”

Been contemplating this article.

I get what he is saying but I also know that we are all responsible for ourselves in the long run. I won't laugh at their pain but I also won't forgive the people that should know better.

I #cameout as #lesbian after I had two #kids. My #girlfriend then moved in and has become the perfect #coparent.

A devastating #diagnosis forced me to #contemplate #death and #reevaluate my #life.

Dear #friends of theoretical #Meditation,

we may #aspire to a healthy #mind in a #healthy #body … but not have them … Wot then?

Depends the degree of #disability. For example being a hater, troll etc is a mind disability BUT hating ones physical impairment is #normal.

So some tips:
- do not be a pain or #enabler of peoples hurt
- be a window pane into a #better realm
- #relaxing (even intensely or in #tension) can be #practiced

For those with greater #well #being:

- #Contemplate

… it's a #start 🕊️
