I want to be awake, aware, alive, knowing who I am and what I am about. I want to be conscious, mindfully aware, of what’s what here, now, what that calls for in doing the right thing, in the right way, at the right time, in the right place in each situation as it arises throughout the time left for living. I understand this to require being present with stillness and silence, listening to my body and what it would have me be aware of and what it needs me to do day-by-day. I want to be aware of moods and feelings as they arise and what that might indicate and mean for me in terms of what that may call for in terms of reflection and realization. And I want to consult this post from time to time as a way of maintaining my focus and direction throughout the remainder of my life.
