Hi Tom, the funny thing or another funny thing about all of this, is
as much as some vestige of my old mind wants to find a landing spot
sometimes, the complete freedom of my being has made possible new
abilities that when exercised only increase the unbounded nature of
me!!! For example I've been doing this thing lately where I will
think a thought and then watch the thought dissolve and focus on the
sensation in the body that is left over after the thought goes away.
Then the feeling in the body transcends itself as it unwinds,
resulting in an even greater space of me within and without which to
play.
