Dear God/ess, I enjoyed both of our radio shows last night. Mary McManus was on MoonMooYou, and  is such a joy. I am honored that she visits this Prayer Blog and makes her mark here.

Clouda9 discussed a social networking site for weight loss on Giant Squid Open Mike and suddenly I became animated about losing the thirty pounds I've been battling since making 100 lenses just over a year ago. Sitting for hours in front of the computer is a hazard to those of us who work and play in front of a computer screen. One year later, I still have not been able to lose this weight.

So I intend to love myself into a weight loss experience: becoming conscious of what I eat, drinking more water, getting more sleep, meditating 2-3 times per day. I intend to love the weight I currently have, too. I will love every ounce of this extra thirty pounds and love it until it vanishes into the ethers.

The video here today is a testament to moving and movement and dance.

We discussed becoming conscious on MoonMooYou and also using every moment as a vehicle for our awakening. This naturally includes what we eat, drink, what we think, and mindfulness concerning the words we speak. If it isn't kind, don't say it.

It probably would be helpful not to speak at all. In fact, I intend to practice silence for the rest of the week.

Ulysses the dog is a quiet soul. He only barks when he wants to get into the house, when someone comes to visit, and when he wants us to go with him to throw balls in the river. What a model of Sainthood he is.

However, Ulysses has a commanding bark. It sounds as if he would bite but he never has. One time he looked as if he was going to bite a man who approached us in the park. His fur stood straight up and he lunged at the man.

That put an end to that.

Om Peace Amen
