It was a day of volunteering at the Temple to help clean the community dinning area. While I haven't attended a significant number of teachings over the past year I have spent time just walking around the Stupa. When I do I find it gives me a chance to simply think about whatever comes to mind. It gives me a sense of balance and I'm usually relaxed when I leave, with a clearer sense of what I need to do in this life. After a few hours of working I had time to walk in areas I'd not explored before. It's going to sound odd, but I felt of sense of "belonging" there. The closest I can describe it is when I walk in specific forest locations back home in Pennsylvania, or the park next to our home. It's like I'm in my most natural setting.
