Looking for OTLs (DW#338)
We have been talking about nurturing love in our lives by practicing micro-moments of connection with others.
But given that in today’s world, we live in a "cocoon of self-absorption", how do we move from *disconnection* to connection?
One of the simplest ways to practice the art of connection is to intentionally be on the lookout for opportunities to perform
acts of intentional, deliberate connection and kindness in daily life.
Small gestures such as making eye contact with the check out clerk at the supermarket, asking how their day is going and being emotionally present to the answer, holding a door open for someone, allowing another driver to enter your lane, helping someone carry a load, moving over to make room for someone all have the potential to count as OTLs.
Simply pause for a moment to notice and become present to the feeling of goodwill between you and another human being in these micro-moments.
You will have delighted another with your small gesture, but you will find that you feel better, more energized and connected because you have shared a micro-moment of positivity resonance with another.
