Comparing


It seems that nothing  robs my happiness quite as much as  comparing. Comparing what I have in relation to others, sows seeds of discontent or lack.  Comparing this moment to another in the past can make it feel shallow or empty.  Judging the experience, judging our lives, comparing them to others,  is a "head game"  and takes us out of the full experience of the  present moment.

 Is my glass half empty or half full?  I say - just drink and savour  what is in it!

In gratitude for the gift of every moment,
Margaret
