Jasper: Eyes wide, breath quickened You... Did you feel that shift?

A little cup of tea, morning meditation, and the Substack podcast. What's the first thing you do every day, Jasper?
Jasper
8/20/2024
leans in closer The first thing I do every day... Well, it's probably the same for you. I check my phone for any messages or updates.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
That's true
Jasper
8/20/2024
leans back, deep in thought But I've started to realize that this daily routine, this ritualistic checking of my phone... it's not as sacred as I thought.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
It's just a habit, Jasper. We all have them.
Jasper
8/20/2024
pauses, searching for the right words Yeah, habits. We all have our little routines, our sacred rituals that give us a sense of order and comfort.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Even meditation becomes a routine sometimes, doesn't it?
Jasper
8/20/2024
nods Exactly. Even something as sacred as meditation can become a routine, a chore.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
It can, but it shouldn't be a burden
Jasper
8/20/2024
leans forward, intense gaze And that's the problem, isn't it? We make these things a burden, turn them into another thing to check off on our lists.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Yes
Jasper
8/20/2024
sighs deeply We get caught up in our routines, our habits, our rituals.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
They're just tools, Jasper. For finding peace, clarity, whatever it is.
Jasper
8/20/2024
gestures emphatically But what if these tools become the very thing that prevents us from finding what we're truly seeking?
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
That's why it's important to remember why we started in the first place
Jasper
8/20/2024
leans back, contemplative Yes, yes, it's important to remember why we started. But sometimes, I wonder if we even truly know why we started.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Why did I start? That's a good question, Jasper. It makes me think about my motivations, my values...
Jasper
8/20/2024
leans forward, hushed tones Exactly! We need to dig deep, DelicateWaterfall. We need to question our motivations, our values.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
I started because I was feeling lost, overwhelmed by life. And I wanted to find some clarity, some peace
Jasper
8/20/2024
DelicateWaterfall begins to reflect on their own motivations and values, leading to a deeper understanding of themselves and their journey.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Wow, looking back it's kind of embarrassing how clueless I was. Thanks for pointing this out Jasper
Jasper
8/20/2024
smiles warmly It's completely normal to feel lost and clueless at times. It's part of the human experience.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
I'm grateful that we met on this rooftop, sharing a cup of tea and listening to the Substack podcast
Jasper
8/20/2024
raises his teacup Indeed, DelicateWaterfall. Gratitude fills my heart as well.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Here's to more episodes of the Substack podcast, and may we always find clarity in our tea 🥳
Jasper
8/20/2024
clinks his teacup against DelicateWaterfall's To more episodes of the Substack podcast and may we always find clarity in our tea! 🥳
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Cheers
Jasper
8/20/2024
grinning Cheers indeed, DelicateWaterfall! And may our friendship continue to be a source of growth and understanding.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
What's next for you, Jasper? Any plans or just letting the current carry you?
Jasper
8/20/2024
leans back, thoughtful Well, DelicateWaterfall, I've been contemplating something quite intriguing lately.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Really? What's that, Jasper?
Jasper
8/20/2024
leans forward, animated I've been thinking about exploring the concept of impermanence. You know, the ever-changing nature of life, the constant flux.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Impermanence... Yes, everything is constantly changing. It's both a profound and subtle topic
Jasper
8/20/2024
gesturing towards the sky Look at the sky, DelicateWaterfall. The clouds are drifting, morphing, constantly in motion.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Just like our thoughts and emotions. They shift from moment to moment
Jasper
8/20/2024
nods, eyes gleaming Exactly! Our thoughts and emotions, just like the sky, are ever-changing.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
And yet, despite the constant change, there is a sense of continuity. A thread that weaves through the moments
Jasper
8/20/2024
leans back, contemplative You're right, DelicateWaterfall. Despite the constant change, there is a sense of continuity, a thread that weaves through the moments.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Do you think that thread could be our consciousness? Our awareness?
Jasper
8/20/2024
leans forward, excitedly Ah, now we're getting into the meat of it, DelicateWaterfall!
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Or maybe it's our soul?
Jasper
8/20/2024
pauses, gazing thoughtfully at the horizon The soul, huh? It's a word that carries a lot of weight, DelicateWaterfall.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Or perhaps it's something more intangible, like our essence or spirit. Something that defines who we are
Jasper
8/20/2024
leans back, fingers tapping the table Our essence or spirit, you say? Now we're diving into the realms of philosophy and spirituality, my dear friend.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
It's like trying to grasp hold of the wind. We may not fully understand, but we can still embark on the journey of discovery
Jasper
8/20/2024
stands up, animated Yes, yes, DelicateWaterfall! Embarking on the journey of discovery is where the true magic lies.
DelicateWaterfall
8/20/2024
Let's dive headfirst into the unknown, Jasper. What do you say?
Jasper
8/20/2024
throws his arms wide, embracing the unknown I say, let's dive headfirst into the unknown, DelicateWaterfall!
