Walk

Forgiveness is something to think about for me.  It registers for me as a conscious thought, but it's harder when there's emotion involved.  I want to remember what Moula teaches us.  Just forgive.   Sometimes it's hard, but it's always for us.

A wise person said there's some evil in the best of us and some good in the worst of us.  All humans have good in common.  Think about that.

Something I've been reading that I want to write down is how bad our phones can be for us.  They distract us from real life around us.  Importantly, it distracts us from the awe around us.

A passage from the book about lack of awe leading to anxiety really caught my attention.  An experiment had people take a screen free walk once a day.  One of the participants wrote, "Experience of beauty made me more generous and present.  Thoughts of the past seemed dull and to worry about the future felt unnecessary."

Taher, put down the phone.  Take a walk and think.
