This Week's Reflection

 

We live in a frantic world.

 

And that's just our "normal" everyday world where, to be seen to be even relevant, we have to be busy, busy, busy, drive the right car, be in the right "gang", go to the cool places, have the right kind of holidays. And that's only on our "normal" everyday world!

 

What about the world stage? Where people are killing each other with neither compuction nor repucussion, where genocide is... OK, where climate change is a hoax.

 

What about how we treat each other? In the workplace, on the road, across the breakfast table, what about how we treat ourselves.

 

And your Self deserves to be properly, gently, affectionately treated - as if your Self is special, which... you are.

 

Nothing matters, to you, more in this world that you. If you don't understand, appreciate and live that truth, you're missing the very essence, excitement and wonder of your own being.

 

Nothing is more important that the moment that you have with your Self, right here, right now. Miss this and you miss everything. Miss everything and you won't even be aware enough to regret it.

 

Do we "get it"? In moments of doubt, annoyance, disillusionment, anger, do we know what we're doing to our Selves? DO we assume that we'll have time to get to know our Selves, to make things right, to do what's right, to live, enjoy, flourish?

 

Because there's no guarantee that either you nor I will have any opportunity other than the here and now.
