O is for Observe

It’s easy for us to people watch and look around. But how deeply do we see? 

I recently binged (again) on the Star Wars movies. One of my favorite moments in The Last Jedi is when Rose tells Finn to look deeper at the casino city Canto Bight. What on the surface appears to be a fun, wealthy city quickly turns to extreme poverty and pain of many for the benefit of the elite few. 

You might not have this deep of an epiphany, but when we really look to see how people, economies, and nature are interconnected we often see the world differently. Even deeply observing our own reactions to certain people or situations can be enlightening. 

As always, try to observe with an open mind and without judgement. 

This post is part of the 26 Days of Mindfulness. For more ways to participate and follow along (not matter what time of the year) click the button below. 

Even if you do not Bullet Journal, I encourage you to write down your reflections. Physically writing on paper encourages deeper thought and longer memory retention. Slowing down is the feature.
