Mindful Wanderings on a Sunny Day

It was too nice outside to be in. But there was too little time for a run or ride or anything else I would normally do. So I just walked outside without a coat or a plan. It was kind of freeing. No pressure. I had 45 minutes until one of my friends came over. Time to kill.

There was nothing on my mind. Correction: there was a million things in my mind, but nothing to think about. To focus my energy on. So I just walked.

I found myself again at peet's. Outside, cross-legged, in a chair on the patio. Again, there was nothing to dwell on. I slightly felt purposeless, but I let that thought pass as well. I just thought about the people, the conversations, the memories, here at this table and just around.

Is this the story, the timeline being written about life? Here on Sunday morning with the world in front of me. What is my next move? What is happening next?

Who knows. But I have another twenty minutes to sit here in the sun. I'll think about it.
