Answer of the Day: Mindfulness in 2014

This morning at breakfast with Maribel,  Desi, and Aurora at Busboys and Poets on V Street, it was amazing how the same themes were present for all of us: more time and focus on the things and people that really matter, more authentic connection, more time for reflecting, slowing down and taking care of ourselves as much as others.

So, on my walk home, I did two things that are on my list of themes: I took some photos of the neighborhood that will help me remember how much I love this city when I'm back home, and in doing so, I slowed down and appreciated my walk and was present in the moment...

Enjoyed this walk so very much. Somehow whenever I am in DC I am totally inspired by the possibilities in life and also can't shake a sense of loneliness. 

I did fairly well today not eating refined sugar, but I did eat a lot of bread.
