"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)

Flow State
It is a quiet and productive day here at the office, which is nice after all the chaos of the last year or more. I am moving swiftly through my tasks this morning and I am anticipating that sort of flow state lasting through the day.
