12.11.15 Momentum
 |
| Reflections on Awareness and Joy |
The force that keeps one moving, or keeps an event developing after it has started, is one definition of momentum. A dictionary example is “once you push something, it keeps going under it’s own momentum.” Thank God for commitments and routine that push me to keep going when my attention gets disrupted.
After receiving sad news about a close friend, disciplined habits got me through what felt like a few dark days . For a time my thoughts became so distracted by worry that I forgot my focus. Physical energy slowed down, strength waned, and fear gripped my thoughts. The fright of losing things is small, when compared to losing peace of mind when things go wrong.
