260906 What I learned in my studies this morning 6*

Today's Meditation:

The Pocket Thich Nhat Hanh (ed. by Melvin McLeod), Blocks and Knots

Acceptance and transformation are the tools to work through pain. Take it in. Greet it. Spend time with it to understand. Find where it fits within my psyche, my soul. Integrate it into my being and make it part and the same with the whole of me.

Not for it to take over. Not for it to overshadow or impose. But to be. Just be. Present. Part. Subordinate yet vital because I am not me without it.

Today to visit my son.
