Introspection and Humor

In this busy world, I find it incredibly important to have time to laugh and reflect. I want people to start having internal discussions. Challenge yourself and learn to become more passionate about your beliefs, while having a release from the every-day drain. I meditate often and promote this experience, it helps us tap into things inside our minds that we don't often attempt to connect with. If we can get beyond ourselves and our self-imposed limitations, we will be able to accomplish so much more.

Miscommunication

What is the point of miscommunication and disagreement? Many will say there is no point. But there are those times, when we are not on the same page with another, that we are able to engage in further discussion to clarify perspectives. If we are humble and open-minded, we are granted the incredible opportunity to view the world through the eyes of another, rather than from behind our own biased lenses. Miscommunication often results in discontent and frustration, even anger toward another. We aren't able to escape this, it is one of the absolutes of this life. We are quick to give answers, sometimes without considering all things. We have our personal stereotypes, beliefs and expectations. It is often very easy to dismiss an idea that we do not understand, rather than taking only a moment to investigate something new. To discover and delight in something that has never before crossed our mind is to relish the spontaneity of this world. There are too many beautiful experiences in this universe to keep a closed off, stubborn and immature mindset.
