Let’s say we have goal A.
During our pursuit of goal A,
Let’s say we encounter B.
If we desire to focus solely on A, and
B demands our attention,
B will be perceived as mere obstacle.
If we focus solely on being blocked from achieving our goal,
It can naturally lead to frustration & anxiety.
Yet, if we can shift our perspective,
So as to fully attend to B,
Enough to respect and listen to it,
B just might turn out
To be the proverbial rose
Worth smelling.
