A GLASS OF WATER
This is my first blog. I am not a skilled writer but I will attempt it anyway.
Let's find a time when there is some quietness in our dwelling. Let's go the kitchen get a transparent glass and pour some water in it. We do not fill the glass so that we do not spill the water. We can also have a sip or two, if we are thirsty. Let's find an area in our dwelling that is not affected by vibrations and with a comfortable seat to sit - such an armchair or sofa - and put the glass with the water on a surface close by. Then let's observe what is happening. There might be some droplets of water on the wall of the glass falling towards the water and they eventually become one with the water. Let's continue observing the water, let's concentrate on the water. In the same time some thoughts unrelated to the water might cross our mind. We identify these thoughts mentally but we do not get attached to them. We let them go. We concentrate on the water. We need to observe the thoughts that are related to the water in the glass as a unity.
My first thought is that both the water and the glass have a monetary value. I paid money in order to acquire them. If I did not buy the glass, but I received it as a gift from my friend, then he/she paid money to obtain it.
The next thought is that a few times I had acquired water from a mountain spring without paying for it. But in order to go to the mountain I had to spend time and energy and I can't do this every time I am thirsty. Obtaining the water from the faucet is more convenient even if I have to pay for it.
One thing is very clear in my mind. That in order to live and function, I need to ingest water and the source of the water should be close to me.
As I am thinking these thoughts, I feel an urge to have some water. I drink some of it and it invigorates me. Now the glass is half-full. I keep on concentrating on the water.
Another thought that creeps to my mind is that I managed to bring an almost full glass of water from the kitchen to the family room without spilling a drop.
Then a mental image comes to my mind. It is a hot summer day and I am in the backyard sweating while I mow the lawn and i see my daughter coming towards me holding a glass full of ice cubes and water saying: "Dad I brought you some water". After I thank her for being a caring person, I drink it right away. For me at that time the water is as energizing as the Greek Gods nectar was.
The big question in your mind might be what all this thing has to do with Internet Marketing or even WA. There are correlations. Everything in this world is related to everything in some way.
I will close with a video introduction to our fellow being - the water!

Thank you Tommy! I see you had an interesting career too. I replied to you with more text but somehow the system did not allow me to do so because it sees non-existent links and as a free member I am not allowed neither real links not non existing ones.
