Say it again

There is a lot of repetition of ideas in my stories. This is a good thing. When I try to introduce and encourage new thoughts, feelings and moods, it is useful to repeat them over and over. The neurologists, when considering neural plasticity, are fond of noting that what fires together wires together; this is another way of noting that the road is made by walking.

My goal is to find better ways to be human and to make the world a better place. I now feel that mindfulness can contribute but there is a lot of slippage. By accumulating, listing and repeating the key ideas the mindbrain is kept floating above the dark stuff. And practice makes perfect.

Just sit.

Say it again – the only constant thing is change; the only certainty is doubt.
