Surprises

Many people avoid or don’t enjoy surprises. Humans like the feeling of being “in control”. Even good surprises scare us sometimes.

Yet, surprises can also make us feel alive. When we are surprised, we are more engaged with the present moment. We don't think about the past or the mountain of emails waiting in our inbox. Instead, we just focus on being and reacting to what's happening now.

Don't always run from surprises. Seek them. They bring energy to our lives. Try it! You might be surprised.
