Remain in the present. Be still. Awaken your senses and fully experience the world around you.
Yes, it's good advice. But isn't it also a little overwhelming?
Maybe moderation is key. Halfway between zen and reality?
I do enjoy drifting in and out of those peaceful moments. I love observing my son's joy and curiosity. I live for good hikes, nature, sunshine. The pretty things, art, design.
Then sometimes it's as if I fail to recognize these wonderful things. Too many cloudy days, and I feel ruined.
Give me back my sun, my soil, some water -- river or ocean -- and I'm me again.
My hope is to stay strong, through any kind of weather. I can always find the light, even in the distance. I just need to slow down, breathe, and search again.
