January 5: missed my morning flight

Missed my proverbial morning flight to catch up with all of you.
Sleep was missed last night, perplexed by why it is hiding from me.

"Knock on the sky and listen to the sound."

The lesson for my being today. Listening in all its forms, in all its ways--to crying, yelling, pleading, begging, whining---it was a day for people's needs so it seemed and I tried to knock on everything and be present in the knock in order to hear some reverberation, some echo, some sound. I heard many things and felt many more.

There is something unseen I am pursuing that goes beyond my limited writing ability--my daddyhood is asking me new and tough questions everyday and I am listening. There is an awakening happening with everytime I see my family--or at least there is a shift that is moving me towards a new focus, a new sense of listening and a stopping to listen better.

Warm, soft sleep to you and yours-
Zen Daddy
