Harry Callahan, “Untitled #6,” from the series “Women Lost in Thought.” Thanks to navigolucky who wrote me saying, “I liked your repost today of the Callahan photo. I think your label is incorrect. It’s actually “untitled #6”. The series itself is called “Women Lost in Thought”. And a wonderful youtube video that used photos from this series is an historic archival recording of the Budapest String quartet at the Library of Congress in Dec 1945 playing Beethoven’s string quartet No 15 Op 132 in A minor, so profound and crashingly beautiful indeed.” (reblogged from darksilenceinsuburbia: via)

When you start out sitting meditation, it takes a long time for the mind to settle down, but as soon as the session is over you get right up and throw it away. It’s like climbing a ladder slowly, step by step, to the second floor, and then jumping out the window.

I think we are well advised to keep on nodding terms with the people we used to be, whether we find them attractive company or not. Otherwise they turn up unannounced and surprise us, come hammering on the mind’s door at 4 a.m. of a bad night and demand to know who deserted them, who betrayed them, who is going to make amends.
