Today I sort of followed another exercise by De Mello. I was to imagine going on vacation alone and what that would entail.
I decided to go somewhere in California because I wanted to visit a place I've never been. I thought about the long flight and how I would have to find something to do for 4-6 hours. Then I thought about how I wanted to visit France when I was younger and how long that flight would be. I thought about leaving the safety of the East coast and flying over the open sea. What would I do with my solitude? What do I feel like I don't have time for? I would go swimming. Maybe I would find time to work out. I could meditate on the beach with beautiful ocean waves before me. I thought about what I would eat and decided that I would try to find something all inclusive so I wouldn't have to worry about it. Overall it was hard to imagine myself vacationing alone.
