The Mindless Generation

Imagine you could catapult yourself to the end of your life, on your death bed you are visited by your one true friend, the truth. The truth has a file in their hand, it happens to be your file, and on you, this file has all the hours you spent mindfully, engaged and connected to others and yourself, where you felt alive, very often in the face of adversity as well as times connected to nature and just being happy and embodied in your own skin. But also in this file it has the hours you spent mindlessly, where you were disconnected disembodied floating in timelessness. How shocking it would be and more so tragic to find that we had spent far more hours mindless and very often lifeless. In truth this is the real scenario we are caught up in today, where generation Z has now been labelled the anxious generation we should not be too quick to point the negative finger at them, there is a lot of evidence to support we the over 30’s are becoming the mindless generation. very recently I walked into a coffee shop there was approximately twelve people there both couples are individuals on there own, nobody was talking everybody was on their phone most living mindlessly. a lot of people proudly proclaim they practice mindfulness but in truth most of us are experts in regular practice of mindlessness. Be Careful if you continue to live the way you are living right to the end, what will your file look like?
