Another week – weekend thoughts?

November 29th, 2008

Marcelo,

It is so good to hear from you. So let me start to wrap up my week?

Better not. I worked a lot. However, there is still some work to be done. As you say, nothing is ever finished.

Why am I saying that? Because I want to give you a feeling for why I don’t have or don’t take the time to meditate at the moment. I don’t go to the gym and focus solely on the current actions – work. The latter is very busy and demanding at the moment but also very rewarding. I truely love my job and would not want to change a bit at the moment.

So I shall almost say, there is no distraction because I only focus on one thing? Would that make sense? Or there is only one distraction and that is daily life and work.

However, thoughts are of course with my baby, hopefully to be born early June. Having the scan this week makes me think how wonderful life is and how much it will change once it is there. It gives me energy to focus on things like work to get things right now, so I have less to worry later on. We shall see.

But, I believe you Marcelo, that the baby will teach me a lot about patience and spirituality. About life, wonders in life and everything related to it. It is such an amazing process, such an amazing thing to think about. One day I cannot wait to hold the little “parcel” in my arms, the next day I am wondering how I will cope.

It will be like with anything else in life – patience, learning and a lot of work. But we are getting there in the end! Just like life itself.
Have a peaceful weekend.
Volker
