Contemplation comes with observantly sitting.
Excerpt from: Life on a Seesaw Volume III, Circle of Life Trilogy SITTING HERE I am sitting here listening deeply to the space around me 'cause if anything matters then everything matters. I am sitting here crying with wonder and pleasure 'cause tears are the best words my heart can speak right now. I am sitting here thinking 'cause happiness is not about being loved; it's about loving someone else. I am sitting here wanting 'cause memories teach me to see the beauty in the world through my own eyes.

It begins it. I have been here before, as I could tell.
For finding: that myself I have reborn
But not seen, is forever to persist
To gather around the seasons of space with the everlastingness of event
With the layered energy as it is made of things.
Into the logical fiber of the tribute: a thought arises
And stays on course, slowly progressing, not done.
By fear: the fear that�s been since forever,
In the same space the inseparable normal good
Being passed through mankind
Came accessible to me: I fade into remoteness

You are right. There is much beauty in the world, all we have to do is contemplate it. It is okay to sit while doing it, but sometimes I wish I could get out of this wheelchair and contemplated from a cliff or a mountain top once more.
