Two Appetites

 I think that a good balance in daily life is to nourish the body with good balanced foods and then to nourish the soul with good balanced prayer of words, silence, with others, in solitude.  At the end of each day I ask myself how I nourished the insides and the outsides.  I pray early and try to eat a good breakfast on my “normal” days.  Sometimes other stuff happens, but I did not plan the other stuff.  If the day is going to be of schedule then I figure out how and when I am going to do the two nourishings.  I find that many people want me to do things but few are concerned about my nourishing.  So it is up to me.
