I sigh as I try to catch the essence of that elusive, so desirable state....I hope we all have experienced our own very individual take on that ...

 

 What does that mean to everyone?? Please share if you can.

 

For me I think it is an equanimity, an 'even' feeling (after any interpersonal or life challenge struggle/tension/flounderings perhaps) from which I can pick myself up, breathe slowly in and even slower out......Then  take the next step, and know I 'do my best'....which is the best I can do so OK!! yes? Even in a tough place.Still me,moving onward,not knowing what is round the next bend (of course).....

 

Then, on the so very gentle 'up'  I find I can once again freely do what I love to do :'give on' and smile .....And that's when usually I feel 'well' again and unexpected uplifting bonuses of life shower down...(like the everlasting rain here in UKSmile).

 

Thanks to Dave for inspiration for this post. I will try and link to a 'scientific' report on this......but I think the community members have their own much wiser takes on this!!
