Intentions

Time is flying. And everyday seems to be about the same. Now I was wondering of heading down to home or to write something, which is rather a reaction and more a reflection, before heading home from the library. At least I completed a form.

I am not sure if all the true intentions are achieved. But many years ago I thought that intentions are just intentions. However, now I do highly value the intention itself. And even I paid quite a bit of attention to the original intention.

To make this even more complicated, because I am a bit tired, what about prayer intentions. Does it has the same definition. I was trying to skim [1] for answering that question, but time is a limitant right now.

Sometimes, and probably, often, although, frequency is not the main point here, so omit that variable, one could spot or smell other persons intentions. Even sometimes from some animals, that might depend on knowledge and instinct. A combination of both.

I do believe that identifying and doing what is the original intention is good. If the words are not aligned with the original intention or even feeling, things might deviate into confusion. Corrections might happen as long as the itention is identified.
