Simbiotc--correction

I want to make a correction to a previous blog. I believe it was one I did about 2 or 3 weeks ago on Symbiosis. I believe I have the wrong perspective on the word. I now feel that I have a symbiotic relationship between my mind and body--as apposed to a symbiotic relationship with food, sleep, exercise, etc... This may seem like it is too obvious to be a revelation--that is, if you knew the correct definition to the word--which I obviously did not until now (at least that is my hope and feel free to correct me on the comment option if I am still not right).

Here is what I believe. I have been through a physically challenging 6 weeks (recovering from complications after surgery). This physical challenge has manifested itself in many ways. Many of the side effects are very unpleasant. I do not want to focus my attention on them--the positive side effect has been that I have developed (or been blessed with) this new found symbiotic relationship between mind and body--or want and need--or desire and satisfaction. Any or all of the fore mentioned.

This new found ability has been very interesting for me to explore. I have tried to "stay close" to this energy or whatever it is and cultivate the ability to think and be in tune with what my mind needs and wants and have them match up with my physical needs truly are. It is a bit hard to scientifically prove, but I have anecdotal evidence that it is working. I feel very much in control of a situation (healing) that is really out of my control. It is good for me to feel some control in this situation because so much of what I am physically going through is up to my body and how it reacts to medicine, rest, nutrition, etc...

Well, that was a bit more "deep" than I intended to get today.

I hope everyone reading this is having a good Labor Day weekend. I always feel that on Labor Day weekend I should work on a project that I have been putting off. I think the "idea" of Labor Day is to "celebrate it" by taking another day to rest and recuperate from the "Labor" of your life. I do not know why I have a hard time keeping all of that straight--maybe I think that my regular work does not "qualify" as Labor.

Take care,
