Amazing Atelic Activities

Honestly, even just being thoughtful about when I’m doing something for the sake of doing it has been nice. I walk a little slower when I’m just going for a walk, I’m a bit less focused on finishing games, and I’ve been getting better at enjoying the parts of my job that I really enjoy – in the afternoons, once I’ve checked off the thing that really needs doing.
It’s amazing.
For me, I’ve found that after losing a spouse or, at a smaller but still very impactful scale, experiencing the past year of COVID, wildfires, record-breaking deadly heat, and a medical scare, I’m so much more appreciative of little atelic activities and just being present.
