Of late I have found a certain amount of functionality creeping into my daily practice. It still remains an exercise in being present yet I find that now and again I am in a situation where myself and my hand holder remain attached to the things we are doing or engage with other things we have to do at the time. I have found that I sometimes worry that this means I am taking it for granted but I think I have come to realise that it is the response of letting the action be part of my everyday.
