I've read somewhere that it gets harder to find people who can focus for a long time on one problem. We are becoming more multitasking people nowadays<br />I enjoy meditation so much this time around. I even skip looking for excuses not to meditate as I used to do before :)Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617686222764658629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158245992923239671.post-37837721474346809452014-06-28T14:01:17.877+02:002014-06-28T14:01:17.877+02:00A beautiful image, this card.

Most folks don't make it through reading articles especially if they are long. They lose their focus. If it is too long forget it I can't read it usually.
