For much of my life I was chasing fulfillment, thinking that if I changed careers or moved countries or whatever, I’d find it.
Then I realised I was just looking for a feeling of aliveness. A feeling of being whole (fulfillment). And for that, I can simply cultivate awareness of my body, feel things more deeply, and appreciate the life I already have.
