Meditation: Part 2

Ah, day two of my attempts at meditation. 

Today's prayer was more...connected. I had a better grasp on what it was I needed to pray for and about. I asked for things specifically, and thanked Him for things specifically. 

As I took my first deep breaths, I had an inner monologue. 

Alright brain, it's time to quiet yourself and prepare to hear from God.
Alright. I'm quiet. 
Pause.
Hey, do you hear that? I think Lucy needs to go outside.
Shhh... you need to focus. Are you focusing? 
Focused.
Pause.
What should I focus on?
Remember, Hum Sah, Hum when you breathe in, Sah when you breathe out. Now, Shh!!
Alright. 
Pause.
I have to go to the bathroom. 

It is impossible to quiet my mind. I am a chatterbox, both inside my head and aloud. My goal is to mentally shut up tomorrow. We'll see how that goes. 

keep you posted.
