On vacation - So far, so good. Not sure this is really a healing time for me, but it is a relief to get out of the northern winter.

One of the things that keeps coming up in my reading is the power of meditation. I've never tried and kind of shy from the whole idea when I am stressed. My theory is that sitting around meditating is just an invitation for all my negative thoughts to start roaming around in my head. That's the last thing I want, but maybe I've got the wrong idea about it. One article I read talked about "compassion meditation", and I can relate to the idea of meditating with a specific focus. Something to add to my self improvement list.
