Revisiting

This week for my meditation I decided to revisit my last meditation location because I was happy with the results from the previous experience. This session started off very well, I'm beginning to fall into the state of relaxation faster and faster each time. I feel that it is becoming pretty obvious that the more you do it, and the more effort you put into it, the better it will be each time. I thought many thoughts, classes, friends, nature, bicycles, SST. The mind is a like a library of millions of free flying thoughts, thoughts which fly randomly in a pattern. I eventually started concentration on beauty. What is beauty? What do I think of when I think of beauty? What do others think of? There are many different kinds of beauty in the world. A person can be described as beautiful, and a mountain can be described as beautiful. However, those are two different kinds of beauty, they describe different things, they define different realities.
After a while I started to think about relationships, relationships I have with the people I know, and relationships that other people have with others. No relationship is the same, a relationship holds an incredulous number of elements that will never be able to be put into words of description, relationships are beautiful.
I left my meditation slightly early this week. I left this meditation with many questions, questions that I wanted to be answered. In a sense it almost troubled me. I thought about how we overcome troubles as I rode my bike back to my room. Again it was peaceful.
