Why are you thinking about years ahead?
Are you able to practice today? Yes. That's all you need to do.

You know we don't have to practice, if we are not inclined to.
Enjoy your life. |

| I will eventually I just don't want to go all in and put that right foot on the floor right now in the beginning. Just kind of looking things over when I have the time. And seeing what I am getting myself into |

| How do you guys do grounding when it gets hot like this? I tried to do some walking today but I quit early so I didn't over heat myself. I guess just wait till it cools off? If it's possible? |

| Is just listening to music one way to ground yourself also? Because when I walk I bring a small radio and earbuds with me and listen to my fav station. When some songs come on its almost like I breath a sigh of relief. Kinda like its "ok" now if you know what I mean. |

 I don't mean to bring up every small thing I find but the ones I do find that help almost seem like a victory
I used to a lot of talk radio but any more I listen to more and more music now wonder if this is what brought me back to it. |

I try not to think about it but the one thing I look forward to each week watching the race and I can feel k stirring. So what's next? Watching my fav sport and k stirs?.. Ugg.. Hope I don't have to give this up.
Don't mind me guys just saying what I'm feeling and getting a bit frustrated that I might have to give up my fav sport . |

K can stir. It's okay. Enjoy your race. K is movement. It'll all refine.

| This isn't an avoidance of what you enjoy, just balancing it all out. |

Ok thanks again.
One thing I have noticed is the past couple times I went to church is I would get the same cold chills you get when you meditate which really surprised me I never knew you could get them there. Then again this morning I got them again just being in church just waiting for it to start.
It seems as if just being in the building did it for me this time. |

I love them! I get them like 20 times a day. It's not a problem, really.
You know how you have listened to an awesome song and got goosebumps? That's what it becomes. Everyone gets those chills when they are inspired. |

Oh yea I totally understand what you mean. The thing is I have been to church many times before this but I never got any feallings from it. it was just another day. This is totally new to me.
This is truly really interesting that I am feeling it when I am there I have never been that way! I went to church before just because I knew it was the thing to do never because it was right for me if you know what I mean. |

| Last night was the first time in years that I had a nightmare. Hope it's a few more years before I have another one. Freaked me out big time. It has been a while since I was that scared. |

One thing I have always wondered and I am not even sure if this is the right forum to ask this question. But, when I hear of people saying that they are reborn what does that mean? I think even God says you have to be reborn to enter heaven.
Am I going through it? Or is there something else to it? |

I enjoy my nightmares now a days. It's fine. Sometimes, I wake up, and I can see them while I'm upright in bed and still see my bedroom at the same time. I love movies, and I'm directing my own film. |
