I stood there, observing her. The way she moved in that setting... The beauty she emanated... The light glowing around her... I observed the moment in stillness. Saw the lovely imperfections that make her unique... Sensed the exquisite perfume she released through the breeze... But also, her sadness stuck in long overdue memories. The salty water descended through my face, and I embraced her, deeply, in my mind.
"When you try to understand something, it's often most effective to set aside your preconceptions and observe it quietly so that the object of your examination reveals what needs to be understood. (...) pure attention without judgment is not only the highest form of human intelligence, but also the expression of love." Haemin Sunim (2017). The things you can see only when you slow down.
