Thank you. @Jonathan, Thanks for your suggestion. At my old work place I had something almost identical to that printed out on my desk. The desks in the monasteries are always interesting to see too. Seeing WAKE UP!!! Written in a bold black pen on the bottom of monitor was a very interesting and powerful move from my perspective. Keep up the great work on your blog. May all beings be happy. Gassho, Wade @Liara, your right, we often make excuses instead of expanding and experiencing what and where we are. Thank you.

It's easy to get caught up in day to day living and forget to be mindful. It would do well for us to print out this article and keep it somewhere we can easily refer to it. Another suggestion is writing "Breathe, you're alive!" on a piece of paper and putting it somewhere near your bed, so you can see it before you sleep and when you wake up.

Rather than focus on what you're not doing and maybe even making excuses, it is a whole new experience to choose to expand your senses wherever you are, whatever you do.

We often forget the obvious, things we did readily as young children. Some things are meant to be brought into adulthood, and that is our capacity as children to be fully present.
