I started my day a bit late today. Listened to this East Forest Sunrise Set Mix that was put online for a free download until the new year http://music.eastforest.org/track/sunrise-set-live
Did some journaling, praying, eating and reading.
Went to Vipassana meditation for 3 hours of meditation.
I am so grateful for the volunteer that spent their new years being at the center so we could meditate. One of my new year resolutions is to volunteer at the Dhamma center.
After meditation it was 9pm and I almost went to Time Square. It would have been the first time I ever experienced NewYears eve at Time Square in NY.
I was on 38th street and just a few blocks away when I witnessed fireworks come off of a building. Then I stopped on a corner and experienced the crowds going into Time Square for a bit. A few people said Happy New year and commented on my Crochades glasses. Everyone seemed really happy and excited to bring in the New Year. I wasn't really in the mood to do Time Square and honestly I am never really in a Time Square mood haha. So I headed back downtown.
I got off of the M train at Delancey to get my favorite Vegan Wrap and vegan cookie. So I can enjoy New Years eve at home with some comfort food hehe.
I got there just in time for my favorite chef Daniel to prepare the wrap for me. He made it with his special signature style just for me. And Star too.
He told me to say hello to Star as well. We smiled and asked each other our affirmations for the new year. His was to go to the gym. One resolution that I told Daniel knowing he would be able to relate to was to create my app business as a turn key business so I will have the income and flexibility to travel :)
When I arrived home I enjoyed the wrap immensely and I got on facebook and went through the trouble of deleting 8 people. Each representing an area of my life that I wanted to focus on. It was hard to do because each of the people were close to me in some way at least on facebook but there was something I needed to let go and detach from in our facebook relationship.
It started getting closer to midnight. It was 11:52 and I decided to open Skype. Not even one second after I opened Skype Star gave me a call. We have a telepathy that is beyond words for real. We were happy to connect and spent about 45 minutes video chatting and catching up. It was the first time we Skyped since she left and I was hearing about her New Years in Korea. She's growing ever day more and more through her experiences and now has her 2015 and beyond face on. Proud of her. It was great to spend the day in reflection mode. I can see a little clearer of who I have become by my choices today. There is still more to reflect on so I will spend the final moments before sleep affirming in greater detail. I am still bringing it in. Classic times. I am more of a Lunar new year kinda guy but I like this early opportunity to shift gears. Glad I am still a Lost Cause :)
