Nuthin

I've been pretty good about meditating lately. I find myself thinking about work a lot. I guess that's because of the amount of time I spend at work. I mean...even when I'm at home I think about work quite a bit--do I need to look something up, what's the uniform/time for tomorrow, am I flying on such & such a day etc. If my mind has to conjure up some thoughts they're likely going to be related to work.
Brad Warner mentioned that thinking "non-thought" is kind of like focusing on the spaces between cohearent thoughts. I'm paraphrasing, but that's the idea. So I've been using that a little bit. On occasion I can hover on that gap between thoughts for quite a while. I notice that it's a relaxing feeling and time goes by quickly when it's like that.
