The importance of staying centered…

The plane finally arrived in Shanghai…Just like everyone else on the plane, I was exhausted and the only thing in my mind was to get out of the plane as soon as possible! In a hurry, I put my dark blue jumper into my bag while contemplating my plan for the next day.

While I was following the crowd and moved slowly towards the exist, a gentlemen standing a few persons behind me shouted out, ” Hey miss, you left a blue jacket in the seat!”. “Oh no!” I thought – while I was thankful to this friendly reminder, I was frustrated by the fact that I had to go against the current and return to my seat to get it (you can imagine how difficult it was to do so!)… when I was finally there, I found that it’s a blue blanket used in the plane but NOT my blue jacket… my jacket was in my bag!

This experience made me wonder how easily we could be influenced by what other people say, especially when we are not fully present and mindful of what we are doing. Everyone has her own opinion and perception, but it’s not necessary true or beneficial for you. A lot of time, people have their limiting beliefs and bias which may in turn affect us negatively if we don’t think clearly for ourselves.

It’s therefore important for us to be mindful and centered, especially for important matters such as how we want to live our lives, what is our life purpose, whom we want to be with for the rest of our lives…This is our lives and our own responsbilities. ..what we really need to do is to listen to our heart.

This quote from legandary pychologist and educator Virginia Satir is very inspiring for me : “We must not allow other people’s limited perceptions
