Being Mindful – Observing Nature , Today.

I’m hot.

It’s 11:19.a.m. , 90 degrees and mostly sunny today.

Today is a government ordered no movement day.

The no movement will remain in effect for the next 2 days.

Next week will be another 3 day lock down.

The Covid figures were really high last night. I didn’t ask for the details. My neighbor shouted it out to me as Zeus and I walked passed her gate last-night.

Zeus was so happy to be out and about sniffing, peeing at every 5 or so steps he made.

I was out all day yesterday , getting a last minute dinner in with my new future, other half.

Im tired of dating.

I’ve had 2 partners since I’ve become an adult, 14 years ago.

I’m on the verandah with my mother.

The fan is on, and on the verandah with me.

Zeus is sleeping. He moves positions every 10 minutes or so. Zeus is probably bothered by my mother’s ramblings in the phone.

My mom is speaking work talk with a co-worker .

I would prefer if she was relaxed and mentally present.

It’s not my will to be done.

I’ve been sipping the same cup of coffee for the last 3 hours.

It’s in an insulated blue cup I received as a gift from a realtor. Thanks to her, I was able to lease my apartment to a very honest couple 1 year ago.

I sometimes wonder if I made the right decision to live with my extended family while I lease my own home.

What message am I sending to the universe? Isn’t this type of living contrary to me wanting a family and a spouse?

I’ve made about 4 trips to my garden.

I’ve straitened out a plant which yesterday’s heavy rains tumbled to a 45 degree angle.

I’ve also straitened out a string of watermelon plant leaves.

I tend to straighten plants in my garden and align them together . It looks neater to me that way.

It feels orderly when the plants are in one line dirtecy behind each other.

I read that the plant will sometimes shift itself to the direction of the the sun to receive light. I ignore the plants’ tendencies and straighten it back for my own liking.

I think I need to stop doing this.

I need to let things be.
