[@Abornazine_]

Mindfulness perspective is somewhat similar with experiences, memories and emotions. It is how we respond to what we experience that makes it what it is.

We are trapped in the stories we tell about the past and the fantasies about the future and loose the beauty of the moment. Be open to the beauty of the wold this small and big world
