Blog entry the first

Well..i was flabbergasted i suppose. I never really put two and two together when it came to meditation or how you were supposed to quiet your mind, its kind of funny every time i tried it seemed that some thought or the other clamored for attention and the more i tried to quiet the thoughts the louder they became...Maybe Jill has a point maybe the only way to achieve inner peace is to shut off the distraction that is being constantly provided by the left hemisphere of our minds, but as it stands the only way to do that is to be lucky (or is that unlucky) enough to develop a small hemorrhage in the left side of your brain. the only other alternative it seems is to have patience and develop a strong sense of inner discipline. Heh maybe true spiritual enlightenment is found in book but in people, not in ceremony itself but the connection it enables in a group...heh or maybe I'm just rambling.
