Cardinal

I am sitting in the lobby of the Cardinal Hotel. You would think it would be fun to recline in an elegant chair, sipping hot chocolate with a book in hand. I don't find it particularly stimulating for some reason. I suppose I do most of my living inside, paying little attention to my environment. And the inside is not a peaceful place -- it is either anxious about one thing, or another thing, or bored, or unconscious.

They come in short cycles -- days of inspired creativity, followed by weeks of routine. I'm guessing the best way to break the routine, to hopefully return sooner to inspired creativity, is meditation/reflection. And learning.

The lights dim in the lobby of the Cardinal Hotel. Half an hour until bedtime. Options: hit the sack early, read some more, meditate, mediblog.
