Back, and sending love to the Minx for her opening this evening.
And e-flurrying. An enquiry…
Subject: A personal question
in reading the writing Ordering The Day, the last point of the practice says “And, before our head hits the pillow, with definition, clarity and certainty, we put part of our attention forward to when our feet hit the floor and we begin our day, again”.
I always understood that we would put part of our attention to the morning of the day in review, the today, as a completion of the backwards review, seeing when our feet hit the floor on that morning, and thus complete the circle.
Did the exercise change? A few others understood it the same way than I did.
From the reply…
we have put our attention back to the beginning of this day, and finally put it forwards to the beginning of tomorrow. so, we hold the whole of our 24-hour day as one present moment, while preparing for our entry into tomorrow.
this also has practical effect, particularly when a punctual arising, perhaps after only a few hours sleep, is important.
08.36 We have a breakfast date with Dr. Alfonso.

Breakfast at Park Chow I…

Dr. Alfonso Montuori is my Reading Advisor and great encourager, to develop my feeble mind.
Dr. Alfonso also knows a lot about dud gigs and smelly venues in London
during the early 1970s. In an earlier incarnation, he was a sax player.
Walking back along Irving and into
