Practice the Pause

Sometimes a household item holds an answer on how to change when you are focused on something else and a WOW moment happens.

I picked up my remote and pushed the pause button. (Was it the  tactile experience?  Was it the visual experience? Was it an auditory experience?) That was it. I want to make a lasting change so I need to pause.

Instead of saying something that you could regret, take pause and push play. Then you do not need to be kind and rewind. You can move forward and in some cases fast forward, if the situation warrants.

I thought about what I would like to change about or within me for the New Year.  I had no idea when 2018 was ushered in. I took pause.

I am not sure what will happen when I push other buttons – especially stop.  Darkness?  I will take pause because change will stop.  I cannot play or move forward.
