Work, Family, and Meditation


Work, Family, and Meditation

I’m all about work, family, and meditation.  If I am not making money, then I am spending time with family.  If I am not spending time with family, I am in meditation.  I do not like to go out to places with many people.  I don’t like to go out to many places at all.  When I work, when I train, it is my getaway, it is my vacation.  Things change when you have many children of your own.  All your free time goes to them and the little time you have left, you have for yourself. 

When I am alone, I like to go for a bike ride. 
When I am alone, I like to read Osho books.
When I am alone, I like to write.
When I am alone, I like to train. 

My life is very simple and basic, some or many may even call it boring.  But to me it is not, everything that I do, I love doing, I don’t really need anyone in my life to feel happy and content.  Actually for 12 years rarely do I ever get a chance to be alone in silence.  Being alone in silence does not come by too often.  When I do find time to be alone in silence, sometimes I use that time as an opportunity express in video format what I have learned about meditation and what I have learned about life. 

I know there are not that many people in this world that are like me, that’s why its so hard for people to understand me, but it’s ok.  I feel that I bring an inner experience of being in the mountains out for the general public to get a small glimpse of. 

I can sit and do absolutely nothing. 
I can read Osho books and do nothing more.
I can stretch and do nothing more.
I can bike and do nothing more.
I can write and do nothing more.
I can exercise and do nothing more.


Those activities are a great joy to me.  I don’t need to go on any vacations or trips. I don’t need to go to the Bahamas.  I don’t need to watch TV.  I don’t need to read newspapers.  I don’t need to watch movies.  I don’t need to spend time with people I barely know.  I find contentment in just being alone. - SFL May 29 2015
