You'be been blogging longer than I... I started in August of 2005. I have only read a few entries... I'm sure if I read more, I'll find the answers to my questions: are you a teacher? I picked up a phrase you wrote "my students" and so I assumed you were. I am too. <br><br>Regarding meditation, and clearing one's mind to provide peace: the Dalai Lama said that "Sleep is the best meditation." I agree. He also said "Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer." (If I don't know what to say, or even if I do know what to say, I usually win, or at least look better, if I say nothing at all). I agree. <br><br>He also said, "Human beings are of such nature that they should have not only material facilities but spiritual sustenance as well. Without spiritual sustenance, it is difficult to get and maintain peace of mind." <br><br>I find that journaling, meditation, quiet moments away from the chaos of the work world (even my teaching world... no, especially my teaching world...), and seeking the presence of the Lord are all necessary to live in this world. And to achieve peace of mind. That's what I think! <br><br>Loved your journal. Come visit me sometime. BeaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
