The wisdom of the Cherokees (part 29)

"There's great contentment in minding our own business."

The wisdom of the Sequichie of the Cherokees

I think the important part here is not "minding our own business," it's the "great contentment" part….

Have you focused on great contentment lately?

One way of thinking about minding your own business is to understand and accept that you cannot live someone else's life.

But you can be engaged in another person's life, even better if it's a mutual openness, if both of you can frankly touch hot spots of shared intuition and delight and experience….I think screaming together, thigh touching thigh, as the roller coaster plunges down is a pretty good example….

There is great contentment in minding your own business with someone you love.
