A Good Omen


After a string of unfortunate events (car repairs, health issues, plumbing problems) yesterday I came across a new inhabitant of my little porch garden. This preying mantis has apparently moved in among my tomatoes. Surely a sign of good luck. I think I'll call him Jeeves.

"If your mind becomes firm like a rock
And no longer shakes
In a world where everything is shaking,
Your mind will be your greatest friend
And suffering will not come your way."

-Theragatha

Not that I've come anywhere near attaining this state of mind, it helps me to concentrate on this principle nonetheless. Blessings to you, yours and Jeeves. Hope you enjoy those 'maters.
