Taking Things Less Seriously Such as Bacon in Ice Cream

One of the things this experiment has taught me is to take things less seriously and to find joy in what is, and not will something to be more than what it is or wish for something to be otherwise.

I'm finding much more perfection in moments and not perfectionism but more of a sense of a sublime now---going back to the words of a poem I wrote: as if I could back to before when my world was innocent and open.

And what I am learning is that I can go back there. As long as I get out of my way and out of my mind. And that feeling is so empowering. One I have spent years trying to get to.

I'm practicing saying yes and no. Maple Bacon ice cream is a yes.
