When life is lovely, why would I place myself - without evidence - in an uncomfortable spot? Why would I allow internal dialogue to override the actual experience of my senses? Pause, breathe, take in the world around me in this moment. If I don't allow myself to feel the good, I rob myself of the internal buffering system that helps when the going gets rough.

Are you able to pause the difficult or dysfunctional? Practice the steps to cooperate with the divine within.
