The walk to meditation

It's been a good day - had a thought provoking meeting with my industrial partners to discuss patenting our research - and then finished off the day with a really interesting session at meditation tonight. The meditation group is led by a Buddhist, so not only do we engage in relaxing meditation but we get to discuss a range of topical subjects. Today it was all about attachment and how this can cause us mental pain. I am not a Buddhist but many of the teachings seem so relevant to everyday life. I rarely have the time to think deeply about such things, but really should, they are so important and only serve to improve the quality of your life. At least I now get to do this once a week.
