Default Day 4

Anyway...today is day 4, since I had a 36 hour day recently (people who lose sleep doing last minute college assignments, unite!)

Meditating is now getting easier and easier. I found a cool trick to fool my mind into being relaxed instead of impatient while waiting for my session to end.

Whenever I got impatient, I just told myself, "What's the difference in sitting here for the first few seconds and the last 20 minutes? There isn't any, really." I had this idea after reading some blog post where it mentioned that everything was relative and events are inherently neutral, it's just how we view it. So whoever who wrote it, thank you for the inspiration. It made the meditation seem so easy, I felt disappointed when it ended, but I had to go out.

I started doing some open eyes meditation too, just for fun. Did the Eagle Meditation (it's from here)
and I just found out my toilet floor is blue.
