Eva’s Byte #411 – Inner Peace
On the road again (no Kerouac pun intended), my furthest trek of the week was to the car dealership for my vehicle’s six-month maintenance check. Prepared for the long haul in the waiting area, I brought provisions: bottled water, snacks, book of crossword puzzles, pencils, and a book to read. Other clients scattered about occupied themselves similarly or were preoccupied with laptops.
Since the television hadn’t been turned on, the quietude wafted its own inner peace as I resumed reading Jack Kerouac’s The Dharma Bums, where Jack (Ray Smith) relates his pursuit of Buddhist enlightenment and the building of an inner life.
While most of us may not have the wherewithal or desire to forsake our obligations through the abandonment of mainstream living, we can find inner peace by tuning in and dropping out on our own terms.
A three-hour sojourn at the dealership instilled inner peace through relaxation. Back on the road again, motoring along with a new battery under the hood, among other refinements, I experienced peace of mind.
In the capacity of a writer, I’m in the pursuit of drafting chapter 29 (717 words thus far) of my Contemporary work in progress.
*May each of us prioritize the pursuit of inner peace for our health and well-being.
My sincere appreciation to you for reading this far.

Eva’s Byte #526 – A Walk on the Mild Side
Pivoting from the premises of “never have I ever” lived dangerously, hither come I. There’s a glimmer of truth in the old adage, “slow and steady wins the race”.
While some health nuts fizzle out from raising the bar too high—er uh, dumbbells—I’ve remained steadfast with my exercising and walking routines for days on end throughout the years. My daily regimen includes a short series of Pilates, weightbearing exercises with a pair of 5-lb. weights, and two brisk daily walks around the scenic grounds of my apartment complex.
Let none of us overlook keeping up the pace walking the supermarket aisles, and lifting bags of groceries.
Low-impact exercising and walking on the mild side are equated with attaining success through consistent effort and persistence. Benefits include: improved cardio health; strengthened bones and muscles; reducing risks for heart disease and type 2 diabetes.
In the capacity of a writer who advances through slow and steady pacing along my Contemporary work in progress, I’m rounding the bend drafting chapter 16 (986 words thus far).
*May each of us adopt a pace beneficial to our health and autonomy.
My sincere appreciation to you for reading this far.
