Goodbye for now (and an explaination)
by kenneth fish on Sat Apr 03, 2010 8:38 pm
As some of you may know, I have been dealing with Hodkins Lymphoma and Lyme disease for some time now. Chemotherapy combined with aggressive antibiotic therapy has taken a considerable toll on me physically, and for several years now I have been unable to work as much as I need to. As my health has improved I find myself overwhelmed with a backlog of things that need to been addressed (work, finances, putting my house in some sort of order), and realize that I have little time or energy to spare for now. I am grateful for all of the kind words and interesting exchanges I've enjoyed on this board, but for now its
Best fishes to you all,
Ken

FIVE REMEMBRANCES MEDITATION
1. Knowing I will get old, I breathe in.
Knowing I cannot escape old age,
I breathe out.
2. Knowing I will get sick, I breathe in.
Knowing I cannot escape sickness,
I breathe out.
3. Knowing I will die, I breathe in.
Knowing I cannot escape death,
I breath out
4. Knowing that one day I will have to abandon all that I cherish today, I breathe in,
Knowing I cannot escape having to abandon all that I cherish today, I breathe out.
5. Knowing that my actions are my only belongings,
I breathe in.
Knowing that I cannot escape the consequences of my actions, I breathe out.
Peace.
