The Eyes Have It

This art stems from a meditation I experienced yesterday. I had just written a long, heartfelt message, quoting Sarah Blondin, word for word. Sarah played an essential role in my early meditation practice, becoming a daily companion. As I revisited her "Release and Renew" meditation, I relived the depth of that experience, listening again, making notes, and typing out large sections of her words.

But then, the message vanished—gone in an instant when I went to make a copy. A computer glitch? Maybe. Maybe not. I’ll never really know. And that’s okay. This is one of the reasons I've learned to stop asking “why” quite so much.

So here we are. You’re invited to take from this moment what feels right. Draw your own inferences, insights, or conclusions, if you wish. I got an abrupt lesson in detachment!

I do know that I’m grateful. My consistency in this practice over the years has rewarded me, deepening and expanding my perspective in ways I never could have imagined. And for that, I am thankful.

Enjoy this reflection as it is.
