Thank you @JFT Beach for the shout out in your round up! So appreciated. This post made me chuckle and made me think. From wanker to empathy. That mindfulness practice is really doing it's magic!
While I'm still trying to get a grasp on the image of your outfit while biking to the beach, I can totally relate to the overwhelming sense of EMPATHY you felt for the man calling you a wanker from his car. This empathy-effect is most definitely one of the most curious side-effects of mindfulness. Let's also be clear, empathy and pity are very very different sensations. Empathy lives in the heart. Pity lives in the gut.
Thank you for yet again featuring my publication in your round-up. I'm always honored and grateful for your support and kind words.
p.s. Yummy is one of my Hobbit's favorite words, but he says "yum yums" more.
Glad you liked it!! I’m so tempted to make a joke about you referring to hummus in the sentence where you discuss an Arab’s post 😂
Didn’t even get that connection - but hey go for it 😂
Thanks for the mention! I haven't been around this week, life happened, and I'll catch up with my reading asap. Thanks again!
No problems
