Today when my alarm clock woke me at 5.30am, I reached for and read, as usual, 'Amazon Spirit' daily meditations for lesbians in recovery by Eleanor Nealy, 'Glad Day' daily meditations for Gay, Lesbians, Bisexual & Transgender people by Joan Larkin, 'For Today & Tomorrow' daily encouragement by Daisaku Ikeda, 'Buddhism Day By Day' wisdom for modern life by Daisaku Ikeda, 'Daily Wisdom' from the writings of Nichiren Daishonin and today's reading from the 2008 calendar of 'The Secret' by Ronda Byrne.
I made a decision not to go swimming this morning. I chose instead to select the book 'Life After Darkness' a doctor's j0urney through severe depression by Cathy Wield, to read in bed, as I had regrettably finished reading James Redfield's, spiritually uplifting, 'Celestine Prophecy' last night.
By 10.30am, I was seated in my local Friends House, Quaker meeting. I first started to regularly attend this particular meeting with my son, when he was seven weeks old. After the meeting, I stayed for a herbal tea, and a chat. Then I made my way to a Buddhist meeting, where I chanted. Today a gohonzon presentation ceremony took place.
