As a younger person, my sights were typically set on going somewhere and now as an older person, my sights are set on being present, enjoying the moment, and truly appreciating the good people and events in my life.
This long weekend gives me the chance to be with people I love, but don't see that often due to distance and life's work. Their schedules and mine don't match up that often, but fortunately this weekend, the schedules do match up.
So what's on the agenda? Lots of listening, watching, and sharing explorations, good meals, and stories--what people who don't see each other often do.
It takes some training to make the switch from seeking to being. It's not that I'm not seeking anymore, but more than seeking for myself, I'm hoping to be supportive to others whose lives are much busier and in need of greater support than my life right now.
