Why don’t we if it’s so easy?

Midlife Celebration books as gifts to Dentist office staff

 

(photo: waited way too long, but finally fulfilled the small task of sharing a signed copy with the staff , and two hibiscus flowers from the house)

If simple pleasures bring enormous gratitude, why don’t we do more of them?

Take pictures.

Go for a walk.

Enjoy the solitude of nature just before sunrise.

Oh wait, we have a real job with lots of pressure and responsibility.

Ok, let’s just wait until we retire to do the cool, daily, little things.

Right?

Wishful thinking
Interesting photo pulled from FB but cannot recall the originator (wishful thinking?)

 

When we are overwhelmed (probably daily) with things to do and think about, it’s often best to pause.

To regroup.

To think.

To take stock.

To reprioritize.

To plan.

To unpause and take action.

Better action than before the pause.

But our work is our mistress.

Who’s got time?

Same thing will happen again in 24 hours

 

When we habitually watch the clock at work, wishing time would go by faster, we are surviving.

When we look at the clock and worry that we don’t have enough time, we are thriving.

When we no longer have a need for a clock, we have perfected the art of living and working.

Lofty? Of course.

Impossible? Depends on the person.
