And so it goes, at home

Drumroll please….

Reunited and it feels so good.

Happy present moment.

You know what never gets old?

Living in the present moment.

A few minutes ago, it dawned on me that the paperwork of life can frequently feel overwhelming because there’s so much to do.

You create a life, get married, start a career, buy a house, buy a bunch of stuff to make your house a home, perhaps raise some children, and as you approach and arrive at midlife, you start to question everything.

Back to that thought i had a few minutes ago, we habitually race through all the administrative and decision-making tasks. And i thought what if we could streamline life so that every task that we had to do and decision we had to make we could be fully present for it and enjoy it and appreciate it in a way that racing never reveals?
