Yesterday, I had lunch with my grandkids and then we played trucks and fire engines; it’s the kind of soul work that always makes me laugh and smile. Jon Kabat-Zinn, talks about soul work as the process of drinking at the life stream. But you can’t drink and be nourished by your life stream if you’re not present. Our thoughts constantly distract us from life as we live in our protective autopilot modes. My youngest grandchild is 15 months and starting to pick up words from his big brother. Eagerly he waits as we play with the big dump truck, and finally says, “My turn”. Today, when it’s your turn to drink from the life stream be mindfully present for this moment won’t happen again.
