Everything Can Be a Spiritual Practice

Hi JoyMama,

I love what you're saying here because I really believe that any action we take up with conscious awareness becomes a form of spiritual practice. I love the reflective, in the moment, approach you have to blogging. I'm so happy you shared your perspective on this.

Different ways of being reflective

JoyMama — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 10:01:45 -0500

Barbara directed me over to this post because I recently did a Zen-themed post myself!

One of the reasons I started blogging was to give myself a forum for reflecting more at length about things that I wasn't managing to put into words anywhere else. I've been finding that there's a certain reflective discipline to it. Maybe it's not Zen, but some of my posts come from places that started as a present-moment kind of thing and then as I thought about those moments, I realized that the moment gave rise to other thoughts and other connections. Then when I share what the moment brought for me, other people chime in and make even more connections. Is that an unquiet kind of thing? Maybe, but there's reflection to it as well.

I don't Twitter, though. Not nearly as much reflective potential there, it seems to me.

Thank you for the food for thought.

Very nice thought

These tips are for any new blogger. I enjoy casual writing. Writing that is written for everyday people to understand. I also get inspiration from those who write about things that they enjoy.

These tips are very helpful for people who want to do conversational writing such as blog posts. What kinds of writing do you like to do? Are there writers that particularly inspire you?

And it does sound like a very cool program. I hope it is a two-way street from a traffic and attention POV.

IOW: They are doing this to be come a centralized location to bring people to them for convention news, but I do hope people let their interests get piqued by some of the participating bloggers and go visit them!
