Well, here I am on day 72. Wow. Time is flying by. I found something interesting out about caffeine and meditation. I think the two simply just don't mix. I think that caffeine may be contributing to our cultural sense of lack in the area of time. I have noticed that when I am caffeinated, I tend to feel more scattered and less organized. True, time does go by faster, but I feel like I've accomplished less. I wonder how much of our cultural anxiety is caused by caffeine abuse? It was an interesting thing to mull over today. I think I'm off it for good this time. No point in doing something that doesn't leave me feeling good.

Beautiful flower,
I'll patiently await your unfolding.
The journey is worth it!
