What do we look forward to?
That vacation, a raise, a new job, peace and quiet, new car, a better life…
“After things settle down…”
“After I get over this…”
Usually we’re right back where we started.
Does it work?
Flipping the script, Yano the saying
“Wherever you are there you go”?
What if instead of looking out into the world, we looked inward…
Mediate, feel our breath, reflect, turn off technology, quiet the thoughts in our head
What if that brought peace instead?
This is so insightful 👏
We get carried away by the things we are craving to have in the future and we lose sight of the blessings of the present. Materialism is like a bottomless pit that can never be filled.
