This is beautiful, Lee. It reads like what all those overengineered meditation apps are trying to accomplish with chimes and AI whispers, but here, it’s just breath, body, and the brutal honesty of waiting.
Most people want shortcuts to enlightenment. You’re pointing at the slow, cellular remembering of being. A path too quiet to monetize and too honest to market. My kind of heresy.
I especially felt this: “I cannot command feeling… I simply wait.” That’s the practice right there. No tricks. No visions. Just patience laced with reverence.
