Working In Bliss

24th August 2010,

Today I am working in Bliss...

We are house sitting for our friends in Encinitas/San Diego, CA. We have been here for a week now with 2 weeks to go. We are taking full advantage of the incredible space we have been gifted with. Since we have been here, the weather has been incredible. During the warm days we have enjoyed the solar heated pool, and during the beautiful moonlit nights, we relax in the spa, with occasional dips in the pool to cool off.

This morning I awoke to a 'moonset' around 6am. The full moon in the east, glowed a gorgeous light orange.

I ran an extension chord out to the canopy, plugged in and sat down. My office today is the blue skies, lush green palm trees, onlooking tikki carvings and Buddha statues consciously places around the garden, and sounds of tumbling water and wind chimes.

See what I see, check out this short you tube video:



Every few hours I breaks and go for a quick swim with the kids, practice my forward dives, or jump around on the trampoline, which is quite a workout in itself. Working virtual certainly has its benefits, don't get me wrong, I am not saying everyday is like this, but when they are... FREAKIN ENJOY THEM is what I say!

Today I really get to work in Bliss, but the reality is that true bliss is our state of being, not the location or surrounding or even circumstance. So on the days when my office does not quite look or feel like this, and when things are not going to plan, I will close my eyes, and remember what working in bliss feels like.
