3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
Life is at an interesting dichotomy at this point where on one hand my Practice is stagnant and in need of new initiatives, but home/personal life is blissful. Forced to choose, I would rather it be this way round! It being still the Easter holiday, aside from blogging, I will put the Practice aside until Monday, where I will start thinking about where to go from here. In the meantime, I will simply enjoy life.

The planet Saturn gives off more than twice as much heat as it receives from the
Sun. Scientists believe Saturn generates heat when helium sinks
slowly through liquid hydrogen deep inside the planet. The
temperature at Saturn’s core is estimated to be about 21,150° F
(11,700° C), which is almost as hot as the surface of the Sun.
9. ZEN WISDOM
Your character is determined by how you challenge yourself, and how you
wrestle with your problems, in a way that is unique to you. This is how
character is polished and becomes diamond-like.
