I Don't Need Christmas

  Yes, I don't need it because for me it's Christmas every day—at least twice a day during my morning and evening meditations. I say "at least" because when you meditate continuously from nineteen to seventy-two (my age today) , your system integrates, deep within, a sacred space that becomes part of you—of your body, your psyche, your brain.

Heavy loaded with an increasing humidity. Silence and immobility. Until today in the late afternoon. The storm arrived. It didn't last long, though. 
Nevertheless it was a relief!
