I've begun sitting again!
I went out for an hour sit today, and discovered that with adequate
clothing, a tree for a windbreak, and snow for a blanket all around
you, the woods in a blizzard can be a perfectly cozy place! I even took
two cat naps. I checked in with myself about whether it was
hypothermia-induced sleepiness during the second nap, when it occurred
to me that it was strange to be so sleepy in the middle of a blizzard. I
believe I was just responding to the call to hunker down, the way the
animals do.
A lark constellation hangs in the night sky, beating its wings as it lifts off the ground. Everything I love, this whole earth, is under the lark.
