As I drove my son to school this morning, he expressed how much he longs for Fridays, because it's the end of the school week. That he's just bored till Fridays. So, I had him do a quick exercise as I drove.

"Look at that man with his pug, how does that make you feel?"
"Happy."
"Look at that Disney poster, how does that make you feel?"
"Cringy."
"Look at those birds sitting on the wire, how does that make you feel?"
"Neutral."
"Look at all the green lights, how does that make you feel?"
"Happy."
"Look at those trees, how does that make you feel?"
"Refreshed."
"Look at all the traffic up ahead, how does that make you feel?"
"Impatient."
"Look at that fire cloud over there, how does that make you feel?"
"Mad."
"Look at how blue the sky is, how does that make you feel?"
"Happy."

"From moment, to moment, we feel different emotions. There is no need to wait till Friday, or Halloween, or your birthday, or another day in the future, to be awake, to be present. Don't waste your life away, waiting for Fridays."
