may this dress remind you of the importance of pausing . . . .


“Learning to pause 
is the first step in 
the practice of Radical Acceptance.
A pause is a suspension of activity, 
a time of temporary disengagement 
when we are no longer moving 
toward any goal. . . . 
The pause can occur in the midst 
of almost any activity 
and can last for an instant, 
for hours or for seasons of our life. . . . 
We may pause in the midst of meditation 
to let go of thoughts and 
reawaken our attention to the breath. 
We may pause by stepping out of daily life 
to go on a retreat or 
to spend time in nature or 
to take a sabbatical. . . . 
You might try it now: 
Stop reading and sit there, 
doing "no thing," 
and 

simply notice what you are experiencing.”
