The older you get, the more you are in your head because of all the responsibilities weighing you down.
I think learning to let go and meditation is the way to go, so we can be more in the moment and appreciate the environment around us.
This is definitely part of it. I could be appreciating the bright yellow of budding flowers on trees, but im also in the middle of making sure lunch is on time, we have food for lunch, my car is parked legally, i havent forgotten anything important at work.. Responsibilities take over brain space when its you in charge of maintaining peace
