As we grow up, so many things are happening in your life.
Some of it you’re processing, some of it you’re absorbing and some of it you should probably think a bit more about.
So it’s just like an email inbox. It’s piling up.
Email after email.
Goign back 10, 20, 30 years. And when you start to meditate, those emails start coming back to you.
What about this issue? What about that?
It’s scary. So people think I can’t clear my mind.
But really what’s happening it’s like self-therapy.
And you just have to sit there and process those emails.
Until one day you reach the magic number of inbox zero.
And there comes a day when you sit down and you realize the only thing you’re thinking about are things that happened yesterday. Not necessarily resolved it, but at least listened to yourself.
