morning thought

My favorite thing to do each morning is what I call " Chen circles " to the point that I thought and pondered trying to figure out why I liked them so much. I decided it was because my Tai Chi guide said they allow freedom of movement and it is in the nature of anyone who has an ounce of Scottish ancestry to love Freedom. Then, yesterday, I felt like listening to a podcast so I listened to an episode of "The Ancient Tradition" and the particular episode just so happened to be titled something and the Shen Circle. Which  was odd, because I feel like there is something just waiting to be known to me about the significance of "the free Masons". And a shen circle is an Egyptian thing used to build temples. At one point, I stopped all Tai Chi cause I saw symbols and wondered if I was not just exercising but performing rites, as movement is perhaps another way to hand down information from generation to generation, particularly Tai Chi does the same exercises as other forms of exercise, but you do not even need to realize you are doing them, to benefit (think of looking on the snake for Moses' people) for instance, if I say, Do 20 squats and 30 of balancing on one leg each day to improve balance, you would believe me, cause it sounds right and un do able, whereas, in Tai Chi (for balance) you do repetitive movements each day where your focus is elsewhere but, you basically are shifting weight and doing squats, and standing on one foot, but it is said, " doing Tai Chi everyday for weeks will miraculously improve your gait"... see?

Anyhow, I have noticed how my mind feels lighter and more able to focus. I feel like I dropped a few hundred IQ points, but they are my thoughts! More specifically,  this is my thought, this morning.
