Food for thought...
Who's the worst to be behind at the grocery store check out? a lenient dad who rarely shops with his hyper toddler and a trainee cashier. can a toddler work the credit card machine and sign the electronic receipt? no. will the dad be apologetic for taking an extra 15 minutes to check out? no. will he use 8 coupons that all scan as invalid and have to be overwritten? yes.
but it's ok. i'm home with my food back in refrigeration again. i've eaten a good dinner complete with fresh veggies and fruits because i decided i missed them. when you fix food for one, you rarely make side dishes. when the main dish serves 4 and so does each side dish, then why bother making so much excess? but certain fruits and veggies work well... a couple stalks of celery, a handful of carrots, and a little branch of grapes. rinse 'em off and there ya go.
so while i was fixing lunch i tried an interesting experiment. i just started reading a book on the eastern religious perspective of consciousness. the section i finished was talking about mantras and repeating them over and over to raise consciousness. i decided i needed lunch and would actually fix something, but wanted to try this whole mantra thing. i fixed the whole meal while repeating this mantra, and was surprised how easy it was to do both at the same time (especially since i had to follow instructions to cook while saying other words). anyway, just wanted to share. ok, gonna try to get some plans together for tonight.
P.S. Keep them in your prayers.
