A meditation routine:
Sit down.
(ambitious start)
Get interrupted.
(ah yes, reality)
Return.
(we love a comeback story)
Get interrupted again.
(incredible consistency from life)

At some point you realize:
this is not ruining the practice
this is the practice
which feels fake…
but is unfortunately true

Meditation is not:
perfect silence
perfect posture
perfect focus
Meditation is:
coming back
again
and again
and again
and again
(with mild irritation)
—
Also:
if your environment is chaotic
your practice is now… advanced
congratulations
you did not sign up for this
but here we are
—
Every return counts.
Even the annoyed ones.
Especially the annoyed ones.
—
And if you want to help people practice in real life—
interruptions, distractions, and all…
