Thread: Morning Contemplation

Be The Razor...........

Love it!!

Gary,

Great post. I'm sure others on this forum have
similar thoughts, especially during their morning
shave. How can I not think of Tony each time I
strop one of my razors. Or Lynn ever time I pick
up my Genco. Or Bill whenever I use one of the
razors that I bought from him? Or Joe when I
hear Louisiana or pick up the W&B that I bought
from him or the two razors that he recently honed
for me.


This shared hobby and obsession of our is
something else. Still haven't figured out what
the attraction is, but I'm confident that it will
only get worse (or better) depending on one's
prespective.

Wow my morning shaves revolve around can I get this done in time without butchering my face.... or dropping my razor...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

These are the thoughts that go through my mind when I shave:

Easy .... Eeeaaasy..... eeeeeaaaaasyy...... eeeeeaaaaasyyyy ...d'uh!

Yeah well sometimes I guess I think too much for my own good

Wow thats a heavy post. Food for thought for all of us. Thanks!

very pleasent post Gary. There's nothing like a good meditative moment to open up the mind.

Contemplative mindfulness really brings a whole new appriciation to life. Really helps to just stop and think about where something came from. Thoughts that seem to just fade away with technology.

When I shave I more or less just try to empty my head. One reason, because I really enjoy absorbing the feel of a moment. Freeing myself of such thoughts so that I may experience an event with as much clearity an vividness as possible.
The other reason: well... because I still am refining my technique and need to concentrate so I don't put a nice juicy slice in my face
