The (Work)day’s Sensations
Headin’ to Work
“When I go biking, I repeat a mantra of the day’s sensations: bright sun, blue sky, warm breeze, blue jay’s call, ice melting and so on. This helps me transcend the traffic, ignore the clamorings of work, leave all the mind theaters behind and focus on nature instead. I still must abide by the rules of the road, of biking, of gravity. But I am mentally far away from civilization. The world is breaking someone else’s heart.” —Diane Ackerman

My favorite cycling quote!
Hey, mine too! ;-)
I love that last line…
Ah, what fortunate perople we are to experience this…
-how fortunate are you and i, whose home
is timelessness:we who have wandered down
from fragrant mountains of eternal now
to frolic in such mysteries as birth
and death a day (or maybe even less)
