Being still and quiet should never be far away

Epcot’s Canada pavilion. Yesterday (a day early) i sent my client a text of this, telling her, “i’m in Canada today.”

 

Being quiet, still even, is rare. And valuable. Kinda like a power docking station for our spirit.

Even with a busy three-day business trip, i plan on carving out quiet, self-reflective space from otherwise busy days in unfamiliar places, surrounded by unfamiliar people.

When and how often should we indulge in self-reflection?

When do we have time to reflect on our life, what it means, and what we should do to help others (including ourselves)?

When, and how often should we indulge in self-reflection?

Autumnal Equinox

The Autumnal equinox comes and goes every September. It happened again yesterday. Most people never notice.

One might even ask, “Who cares”?

Realizing this while eating lunch at the Salt Lake International Airport, I took a moment to reflect on the changing of seasons and the passage of time.

That’s what these seasonal milestones do, they mark time in a bigger picture than seconds, minutes, days or weeks.

Seasons. Four every year. Big deal.

Several friends have recently found out they don’t have much time left. Life is seasonal too. We’re born. We live. We pass on.

Does anyone even notice?

“What would you do differently if you had ten years to live? Not weeks or months, but a decade”?

Start soon. The next Autumnal equinox is right around the corner…..
