Droplets

Thoughts and feelings drop into our awareness like water dripping into a pond. They create ripples – other thoughts and feelings. We don’t like “bad” thoughts and feelings, so we bat at them.

We interfere by splashing around. The droplet comes in and we can choose to observe it, or meddle with it. What is it like to stop splashing? To let the droplet come, the ripples happen, and let them naturally subside.
