The meditation was really amazing. We had a lot of actual meditating (unlike the retreat I went to) and a nice lesson on "emptiness" and how suffering is derived from our attachement to self and others and we can only reach happiness by letting go of the attachment. It makes such perfect sense. And it made me want to meditate on it a lot. And try to accept it as readily as it makes sense.
SO much suffering from attachment to self and our need to focus on me/I/my.

I talked myself out of meditation and then back in. I'm nervous about trying it on my own. I dunno why. Work has stayed pretty consistently busy lately, but I had a calemer/happier mind today. Oh, maybe 'cause I booked a training trip to Vegas! And I get to stay at MGM Grand, which is pretty awesome. I'm not sure if I'll be going alone or not yet, but either it should be an awesome time.

I hope my horoscope turns out well today:
Capricorn
(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Prune away the extraneous stuff and get to the heart of the matter. Clarity of thought leads naturally to clarity of communication, which in turn leads to major progress.
