The art of patience and cooling repairs

I will start again in honor of my heating and cooling expert who has moved on, but his wisdom still echoes clearly in my mind each day while I am working on a heating and cooling system or doing some radiant heated floor repairs in someone’s house.

A lot of things in life involve patience, or at least they should involve the virtue all the people are in short supply of. I was meditating each day for an hour for several years but somehow fell out of the routine. I want to get back into it again so I am going to start each day with a meditation session and see if I can sustain the habit once again because it has particularly helped me to be more patient. I try to do it each day when I know about it, kind of like the HEPA filter salesman told me to do when we would work at the heating and cooling supplier each day. My good friend and I would do a little meditation session when we got to work to put us in a patient mood and it just made the day flow a lot smoother. I will start again in honor of my heating and cooling expert who has moved on, but his wisdom still echoes clearly in my mind each day while I am working on a heating and cooling system or doing some radiant heated floor repairs in someone’s house. I miss that old guy and wish I recorded some of what he would say to me so I could listen and learn from it, but it is all just in my mind and my memories now. He would be cleaning a furnace filter and telling me about life, which felt like I was back with my grandpa resting in front of the fireplace on his lap listening to him tell me a story. I miss my patient Grandparents so much, jeez.
