Welmek: You can do several things, and try in your [[quiet]] moments of [[meditation]] and in your active moments of the day to be [[silent]] in your spirit, and to say, "Father, it is Your will for me at this moment." It is more palpable when you are in a relaxed mental state. And you can certainly [[practice]] this in the active state, but it might take some more time for you to feel this the way you might feel it now when you are far from the stress of daily life. But I certainly [[encourage]] you to continue to try this both in the [[quiet]] and active states, for this is how it becomes more fully [[integrated]] into you, so that it becomes an active habit to remember that you have removed yourself from this state of [[grace]], and this [[simple]], heartfelt prayer, as you say, that will restore your spiritual [[equilibrium]]. Does this help? (Yes! It seems pretty helpful.)

Student: Welmek, our last meeting you mentioned the word '[[rhythm]]', a living, [[dancing]] back and forth, and I've said I was getting [[polarized]]. In one way I have a good feeling about a greater [[moral]] sense of almost everything: a compass pointing that this is a good thing. With that polarity you suggested that maybe it's a dancing back and forth. So I can always think of, the [[impression]] I just got during this exercise was being more supple, more alive of - then I thought of a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbutus_arizonica Red Madrone tree] that gets all brittle and very red but very brittle, then it cracks open and you have this pale neon green living skin again. And I actually feel myself at times doing that and the world [[agrees]]. The people around me [[smile]] and the tools I handle talk to me, and they follow the line almost on their own.

Welmek: Each day, indeed, each moment has the [[potential]] for you to be [[renewed]]. So this sense of suppleness and [[flexibility]], and I would say even childlike [[innocence]] and [[joy]] can be experienced.
