BREATHE & BE
Rushing from here to there, trying to keep everyone happy, having too
much to do and forgetting to breathe; these can sometimes be the hallmarks of my
day. I allow myself to become
over-committed, scattered, and out of touch with myself. When this occurs, I go through the motions of
accomplishing in a fog and miss many moments of connection, presence and
meaning.
Today, I intend to slow down and take my time. I want to see you and be me. Nothing is as important as BEING. The doing that needs to occur will still
happen, however, I choose conscious, purposeful action instead of a blur of
activity. One moment at a time, aware of
breath, grounded, present, me and you.
With the responsibilities heaped on us it is often hard to find the time for "being". As I reflect on your writing, I must stop and remember that slowing down may be just what I need.
