What Makes You Come Alive?
Reblogged from Under the Lotus Tree:
"Don't worry about what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and do that. Because what the world needs are people who have come alive." — Howard Thurman
Mindfulness: That popular term being used by everyone from Hollywood darlings to doctors to Buddhists. But what is mindfulness? In simple terms, mindfulness is "coming alive". It is being fully awake in the present moment, not merely "awake" as in when your eyes and ears and nose merely perceive things, but when your spirit is fully engaged in the moment, whether by observation or participation.
This post made me smile, and I wanted to share the joy by expanding the message in one more direction! :)
