We live in a world that is so perfect it should constantly blow our minds. But we are so lost in making it all personal that we miss both the greatness of Science and the greatness of God.
Michael A. Singer, living untethered, page 43. (New Harbinger/ Sounds True, 2022)
Hmm! Think about that for a minute. This world is amazing and miraculous. Yet how many of us actually take the time to notice how amazing it is, let alone appreciate it? We are too busy making it all about "me".
You live in a world where a seed falls on the ground, and it has a built-in chemist that knows how to break down the molecules of dirt and water, mix them with sunlight, and combine those substances into a cornstalk or tree. page 43
Mindfulness helps us to get beyond that "me" so we notice, allow, appreciate and experience all of this majesty exactly as it is.
Mindfulness is a natural, effortless process once you let go of personal distractions. Instead of thinking that the moment in front of you has to be a certain way, you start thinking that it's pretty awesome the way it is. In fact, it's amazing that it even exists. page 44
All is well in my world
