We generally "Take a moment" every evening as we sit down to eat dinner. Tonight was a special experience. As Amy looked deeply and presently into my eyes to prepare for our 'moment,' I felt a wave through my heart. Ya see, my mind was very active, going on and on about the stresses of this modern economy. Additionally, I was ranting on about some trivial complaint about why this world isn't perfect. And I got a glimpse, through eyes of Amy, of how presence is experienced.
In an instant, my whole experience of the world shifted. It was a palpable shift from worry to acceptance, from anxiousness to presence, and from scattered to focused. I think this human experience is precious enough to enjoy some acceptance, presence, and focus on a day to day basis. Amy reminded me of what's important. Sometimes I remind her. Thanks Amy! I'm enjoying this life with you.
