Present

Taking a break from reading Les Miserables (whew!); rereading Eckhart Tolle's "The Power of Now". It's been several years since my last reading and it rings more true than ever. For example, I find that I'm sometimes able to meditate when hiking just by focusing on the repetitive steps and my breathing. I'm also able to more often "watch the thinker" in my we I get frustrated or angry; can't always disassociate myself from these emotions but am getting better at being present.
