Whew! Sometimes hard sometimes easy. Meditation teaches being present. That very much helps. If I like it, I’m focused. If I don’t like it, I have to try harder. Focus. Right now I’m focused on the word focus! Is there still more time? This is taking forever!!! Ok. I’m done focusing on this.

Focus is hard for me. Sometimes I get it, go beyond time and hunger and sound and sight. Nothing exists except what I am doing. I like hyperfocus, it feels good, complete, nothing wasted, nothing scattered. Other times, I feel underwater, everything muddled, having to push myself back through to the surface when all I want to do is float in the silence.
The kids were all moving and it was difficult to get a family shot. Once I had the elders in focus, as they remained still, other people had closed their eyes or they didn’t like the expression on their faces. I thought back to the old days, when we had film and couldn’t instantaneously see the imagines in the camera and people had to be satisfied with whatever image I could capture.

Focus. Focus on hokey pokus. How to spin reality. How to weed through the noise to find it? Focus!
