body, mind, home, being, identity. positive manifestations.
Annie Dillard wrote "how we spend our days is of course how we spend our lives."
What are your values and priorities in life and how are they reflected in your everyday? How were they reflected in your day today?
The people you prioritize in life, the people that prioritize you in life, how is this reflected in your daily lives? What steps do you take for them day to day, and do they take them for you?*
*Of course this is bearing in mind that there are off days, it is not linear, we take the bigger steps sometimes, they take the bigger steps for us other times, but there should be patterns you can see that help answer
When a man is just born, he is weak and flexible. When he dies, he is hard and insensitive. When a tree is growing, it's tender and pliant. But when it's dry and hard, it dies. Hardness and strength are death's companions. Pliancy and weakness are expressions of the freshness of being...what has hardened will never win.
| Andrei Tarkovsky
— how wonderful to be who I am, made out of earth and water, my own thoughts, my own fingerprints—all that glorious, temporary stuff.
