Living in today's society, especially in the city of LA, it's rare to have a moment of stillness in my day. I'm often rushing from one thing to the next. More so, I hate being in stillness for fear of not getting stuff checked off my to-do list.
Until one day I'm forced to do it, my body crashes and I'm forced to slllooooowwww down. It never fails, when I allow myself to, I feel refreshed and content. I feel connected to myself, to my body, and to my needs.
It's so easy to go through everyday life and only see the negativity. I find myself driving (in LA traffic!) thinking of all the things I WISH I had, I WISH I could do, I WISH I said, or I WISH didn't happen to me.
So much of my energy is used viewing things from the "glass is half empty" perspective instead of being grateful that there is something in my glass. I need to start seeing the blessings in my life, even the small things, even when it's hard to find words of Thanksgiving.
