Mindfulness Meditation In Everyday Life Jon Kabat-Zinn
Pg 79 1st round answers.
Why do I Meditate? List:
To be better at lucid dreaming.
To defuse my anger and frustration.
To have a clearer picture of my world.
To be present. Be Here Now.
To not be distracted.
To be a better husband and father.
Values?
Relationships are what is most important. Forcing my will on others is misdirected and a sin, if there is such a thing. The earth sustains me and my family into the future. I am wholly an integral part of the universe. Logical Pantheism.
What I honor most? MY responsibilities as a husband and a father.
What is most important List. Wife, Children, community, earth, being present, being loving and present.
What is my vision? Enjoy life by living my values in an engaging and creative way.
Does this reflect my true values? Yes.
Do I practice my intentions? No nearly enough. I too often consumed with my own desires and emotions.
How am I now in my job? Spotty. Family? Good primarily, but too angry and reactive. Relationships? Getting better.
How do I want to be? More engaged. More present. More reliable. More fun. More productive.
How might I live my vision, my values? Engage with others to help and amaze them.
How do I relate to suffering, myself and others? I do not fully appreciate it in either place.
Come back to this list from time to time.
Am I Dreaming?...I hope so!
