Develop an interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.
-Henry Miller
I believe that we can become too focused on ourselves. There is a profound difference between listening to your life and constantly worrying about your problems. Listening to your life means taking the time to do what the great novelist Henry Miller is suggesting we do. Marvel at the goodness around you. Enjoy the world and the people that enter your life. I have a friend who works very hard at 'finding himself' so hard in fact that he loses what he is looking for! Every day is rich with treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. So enjoy today!
