My days are full of accomplishing tasks, meeting schedules, balancing requests... all good things, yet things that feel like I'm climbing up hill, that I'm working. When I am aware, I can notice the moments of "Ahhhhh!!!" or "awe" that come from a smile from a stranger, a kind word from a friend, an opportunity to laugh with a sister. Those are the resting moments, the appreciating moments, the stopping-on-the-climb-to-notice moments. For me, that is the feeling of wellbeing. It is a healthy feeling, a balancing feeling and when I notice it, I can sit with it and allow it to ground me. The trick is to notice it and extend it, without going right back to the to-do list. This morning, I read about Japan's Cat Trains and felt the surge of delight that comes with moments of wellbeing. 30 rescue kittens on a train in Japan? Wellbeing bucket list material for me!
