Observing Our Thoughts
Just for today,
Be aware of your thoughts.
Thoughts will come in — and when they do, ask each one
Who sent this?
For what purpose?
What accent is it speaking in?
And ask yourself
Who is doing the talking?
And who is doing the listening?
Simply notice.
Observe.
Acknowledge.
Then wave with a smile to the thought
As it wafts through
And floats away.

When is it the easiest time in your day to practice this? When is it the most challenging?
