Greetings, stone balancing monsters!

I recently had the wish to spend some energy on that practice of Zen-and-stone stuff. I had a little goal here — make at least one photo of one stone tower that I built each day of my shortish vacation by the seaside.

What I discovered was...I was mostly preoccupied and too busy as a mental state. Conditioned to want to go to the next thing and not spend too much on relaxing. Because I want to do too much and I have too little spare time.

Well, a lot of it goes to things of my choosing but here is the thing...

I choose too many things.

So, finding the time to go through this little challenge did prove...challenging. I barely was able to handle myself in terms of patience. And, oh, patience is required if you're to be a Zen-stone-stuff-practitioner ;)

I planned on posting them in the order I built them but since I was not happy with how I managed the whole thing...lack of time, again, so change of plans. That time problem is a normal thing to have, I guess, when dedicating most of your efforts to your family having a nice time ;)

I shall change the order and the count of the posts that shall appear. I'm starting small here...

...to be continued in Part II.

Yours,
