“Life needs to be experienced fully, not only in its sweetest, easiest moments. This is what mindfulness is all about—being here and now, with pure awareness of our experiences.” – Jennifer Burger
Ms. Burger is preaching! When I’m working in jobs I don’t love or in environments that don’t sustain me, I feel like my brain takes a back seat until it’s all over. It doesn’t matter if it’s 3 minutes or 3 years. All I know is it’s clear to me now that I want jobs, friends, and environments where I can be fully present!
When we are in places that allow us to be fully present, I’d call that alignment. Alignment is worth the commitment. Do we really need proof? Do we need to see the other side? Is it worth sacrificing your soul? I don’t think so.
What do you think?
