Meditation anyone?

I decided to try to learn to meditate.....
I thought it will help me become one with the universe, a wiser, calmer and generally a better person!
So I sat on the back of the boat one evening and gazed out over the calm waters of the bayou.
A few seagulls flew by, carried by the wind, then a pelican swooped down and settled on the water. This is just what I need....I thought!
After just a few minutes, things, words and images started to float up into my mind..
I thought of the universe as a vast, impersonal, life creating thing, that is ever changing and moving.
This touched me deeply and it seemed that time stopped, suddenly a wave a peace came over me or from within me.....still not sure.
Then another thought popped up,
"I am so alive in this impersonal universe....so glad, or am I?"
Then another thought...
"Life on earth is sustained by things feeding on one another...Ewww....Whats up with that.....?"
Then another thought flew in.
"Shit happens."
Realizing I had strayed from my mediation and my thoughts should be good, soothing and calming, I took a deep cleansing breath and looked back out on to the bayou.
New thought!
"Pew.....it stinks over here near the paper mill, and that thing is so noisy!"
Then another thought....
"I feel the need to urinate"
Bummer....
 Here's some pictures to help you meditate!
These were taken off the back of the boat...

Finally🌞Back on board


Finally after a year and a half, living with friends and house sitting, we are almost ready to head back out on Adagio, we have worked so hard on her, she is almost a new boat!
We replace almost one side  of her with new metal, engine rebuilt, generator repaired,  new pro furl on stay sail, house repainted, sails redone and repaired, house enclosure canvas redone and cleaned, deck repainted, hatches repaired, it has been a whirl wind of boat, boat, boat.
I have new carpet in the hall, in the state room, and a new floor in the galley.
We are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel!
We are leaving after hurricanes season and we are off to see more of the world! I for one am so ready!
