Doing is relatively easy. You take action. You practice. You get better. You make decisions. You move forward. You fail. You thrive. Ultimately, you’re driving.
“Being” is considerably more challenging. Waiting for results you have no control over. Sitting with feelings. Contemplating. Ruminating. Exploring the unknowing. Paying attention to breath, to surroundings, to life without having any power over it, this is considerably more challenging (for me) .
Can we get better at being? Can we do so through practice? How does the practice of “being” differ from the practice of “doing?”
I want to sit with this question.
