Patterns Of Life

What an evening! Work & gym and finished off with a great dinner. Thousand apologies to my dear friend as he's not too much of a herbivore. Haha! What a disappointed face he put up when I suggested salad. We are what we eat after all and too much meat destroy the balance of the ecology. Not bothered about having gym for more than 2 hours, I am not letting my diet go waste. Eat right & exercise well is what I want. As he proclaimed he is always tied down by work and time is defintely of an essence in his busy schedule and I am definitely someone who's in control of my life. You can bet on that!

Hmm... control for your life. How many of us can maintain that? Often we are so busy participating in life that we never take a look at the larger picture. Even more often, we have set up our lives at such a hectic pace and are so over-extended that we are not actually participating in life. We are being driven by a life that we have constructed in such a way as to be sure to miss out on what life is really about.

No matter who we are or how we live our lives, all of us can benefit from taking some time to stop, back off from busyness and perceive our lives from a larger perspective.

We don't have time, you say? Nonsense! We can take the time. The choice is always ours. We need time when we can disengage for a day, a week or even a month to get an eagle-eyed view of what we are doing and what we are all about. Living consciously is one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves. We can definitely treat ourselves better.
