Upside Down

Upside-down, Squirrel clings, motionless, to the side of Maple tree for a long long moment. As a sometimes rock climber, it occurs to me that in order for me to do what Squirrel is doing, I would have to be at ease. Then I think, in order for me to be at ease with where I am, I have to be at ease with who I am. In order for me to be at ease with who I am, I have to be at ease with what I am doing.

Today, I will be paying attention to what I am doing, and the proximity of intention and action.
