I feel like it’s so easy to get caught up in looking forward to something, instead of enjoying the present moment. I mean, we discount the present moments because we think that something more important is coming up ahead. However, this is not true, we really should be appreciating all aspects of life. Because we are truly lucky to be alive. And when we act this way in everything we do, we have the opportunity to experience a much richer life. So that;s why, even the simple act of making tea or doing the dishes should be treated as sacred and important. And when we do this, we find we are much better at coping with life in general. And also, when that exciting thing does finally come around, we will be much more mindful experiencing that too!
I think it’s so easy to get caught up in looking to the future. After all, there are many exciting things we will get to do. However, if we take care to appreciate them, there are so many wonderful gifts in the present moment if we open up our senses to them. I think the more we practice this, the better that we get at this. It’s not easy and no one is perfect at it. But the more we try, the more we remind ourselves, the better we get. Life is really so much better when we are mindful. It’s a lot more engaging and a lot more peaceful. And we will inspire others and be able to give to others because we are filling our own cup by being mindful. I think everything we do is a process, a journey, and that’s really what mindfulness comes down to, embracing the journey. It’s so much more fun that way! Anyway. I really hope this inspires you to live life more fully, more graciously, more presently. I know it fills me up with love when I can really engage in the present moment.
Have a wonderful day wherever you are, thanks for reading. 🙂 ❤
