Day 4 of the Tao

Day 4 is Reflection:

Moon above water.
Sit in solitude.

Still water reflects the moon perfectly, while turbulent water mars the image. So, I take this to mean that stilling the mind can allow you to find a level, and reflect perfectly. Interesting, as I had two, count 'em, two no-shows this morning at the Pilates studio. No-shows are never fun, but if you just rolled out of bed at 7 am to get to work, not working the first 2 hours is pretty grumpifying. And yet...I managed to keep my cool. I still get paid partially, so it's not a crisis, but still, I'm proud that I stayed calm and used the time to read and catch up on phone calls. Good for me.
