"Demasiado de nuestras vidas tiene lugar en la cabeza, en la memoria o la imaginación, en la especulación, en la proyección, en la abstracción."
— Jon Kabat Zinn
Simplified Meaning:
We often spend a lot of time thinking about things rather than living in the present moment. For instance, we might replay memories of the past in our minds, worry about what might happen in the future, or imagine how things could be different. This can make us miss what's happening right now. Imagine you're at a family dinner, but instead of enjoying the conversation, you're thinking about work or what you need to do tomorrow. You're there physically, but mentally, you're somewhere else. When we live like this, we can miss out on the joy and experiences in front of us. To make the most of life, it's better to focus more on the present. Pay attention to your current activities and the people around you. By doing this, you might feel more connected and enjoy your daily life more fully.
