Very nice. I fully agree with the jumbled thoughts. Thanks for sharing!

"The question of how to live a meaningful life is fairly simple to answer. In each moment, we have an opportunity to connect with the contents of consciousness, with the sights, sounds, sensations, and ideas that constitute the actual character of our lives or we can be lost in thought, that is thinking without knowing that we are thinking, and then we are fully at the mercy of whatever thoughts arise. As you know, the character of much of our thinking is unhappy. The mind becomes a kind of theater of doubt, anxiety, and regret and only in this theater can one be concerned about the meaning of life. This moment does not, cannot, and need not mean anything. One can only think otherwise and thinking otherwise seems to introduce a crisis of meaning. Mindfulness is the ability to break this spell and actually connect with experience in the present moment, but it doesn't come naturally, as you have probably noticed and that is why we practice it." --Sam Harris

Sitting with it is the best way to help when listening. I love this talk. And I think the Mandalorian is a damn good redemption arc.

I need to get more into star wars stuff... I've watched bits and pieces of different movies but don't have a good grasp on the whole story!
