Today in the endless quest to be on line, whether that's Tick Tock, Instagram, Facebook, Zoom or whatever - we have stopped being still. Not doing anything in particular, just being in the present. Losing the ability to just, be - to be still. Allowing the sensation of breathing - in and out. I like to sit in my comfortable chair and look out to the river and just - watch. The very popular BBC Two programme Gone Fishing addresses that issue. Two friends sitting next to each other on a river bank and shooting the breeze. It's a reminder of a different way of life, not as frenetic and time to just chat, about nothing in particular, just being. Time is running out, but no one cares too much.
