Lovingkindness Meditation

From Joan Borysenko's site:

Meditate any way you choose for a few minutes, or enter the egg of light. Then repeat these blessings first for yourself, then for your loved ones, then for those you are in conflict with, and then for the world. I like to imagine the star of light from the exercise above expanding into a circle of light into which I call those to be blessed by name, imagining them as fully as possible. Here are the blessings:

May I be at peace, May my heart remain open,
May I awaken to the light of my own true nature,
May I be healed, May I be a source of healing for all beings.

MNteractive : Garrick Van Buren

If you're into usability, design, interactive...er something...anyway. Go read MNteractive, a group I've wanted to get involved with for a long time and just have not got it done. Need to attend a meeting...

Anyway, had lunch with Garrick yesterday and all is well! He's eating at the mighty trough of Sun Microsystems right now, and doing good work. I'm hoping to get him back to code42 to give us some objective UI feedback.

He's also selling his house - it's dope, check it out if you're in the market. Also, it's very near me - which is either a good or bad thing, depending on who you are...
