As you know, my life runs on a schedule. When it isnt training sessions, it is work appointments that come in either 30min or 45min slots. Constantly looking forward to how I was fitting in the next thing into my schedule. None of that became more clear to me until 10wks ago when my grandma died. She was unwell and we did expect it this year most likely, but none of my family expected her passing the morning she went. Eating her breakfast, chatting happily, then 30min later...gone. In that moment, and in the days that followed, it felt like my world stopped turning. All that was left was the moment I was in. Of course over the past weeks life has returned to "normal" but it is a different normal, and I am continually reminded to be more in the now.
I get the feeling your Nan knew this too - chatting happily over breakfast - enjoying the moment. Sometimes you have to give yourself a little reminder, a little memory jog to be back in that place - but that sounds like a profound moment, Jenny.
Great video as always!!! My french isn't up to deciphering much of anything so I won't venture a guess but I was loving the format of this video. Well done 👏🏻
Well, I guess you're not a million miles from Canada but you're the wrong side from Quebec...!! Thanks man - I actually really enjoyed writing and researching it all...
@@1stElement - I love the fact that you've posted references for everything. That's the kind of stuff I like to see more within YT. Keep up the great work!
@mlegrand thanks mate - yep, it’s what I expect of my students - lead by example, huh? Be the change you want to see in the world… er… float like a butterfly, sting like a bee… 🤷 hahaha!!
Loved the video! Challenging and thought provoking in very positive ways!! Kicks up numerous ideas, thoughts and emotions in me. Well done👏👏👏 I hope one day we get to chat in more depth over a coffee. Until then I'm looking forward to your next video! ⭐🖖
Your surrealist accent sounds like my coworker F@ck it is his montra. My dad says no one get out of here alive😂. It’s true we are so quick to forget what is really important. Your right YOLO my friend, great video and a great reminder happy Father’s Day Sir ❤
Thank you man! I’m going through tough times and somehow this feel so real. Really thank you! And at 08:36 I have no idea “just blame trouser fassels” really no idea 😂😂
I’m sorry to hear about your tough time man - you know, it’s not always helpful but ‘everything passes’ and it is true… find something each hour to appreciate and things seem brighter. And yeah - sorry, you got ‘trouser’ right…!!
I’ll send a prize to the first person who can decipher what the Surrealist says at 8:36

@richardwilson1786 thanks Richard - it took a while to word it all the right way! I’m sure we’ll find the time and stars will align!

To you too, brother - take it all in - it’s all happening all the time around us - take it for granted and you’ll regret it!
