The Best Bite #187
Have you ever noticed that when you’re eating a really good meal there’s always one bite that seems like the “best bite”? It has the perfect mix of flavor, texture, and temperature.
I’ve become a little obsessed with making a mental note every time I have a best bite moment!
It reminds me that paying attention is the biggest part of life, and the part that’s so easy to skip in the hurry up pace of today’s world.
Actually, the best bite mentality can spill over into lots of other areas. Have you ever noticed that if you look for the good in someone instead of all of the flaws you start being able to appreciate them in a new way? Have you ever noticed that if you stop the mental chatter about everything you don’t like about yourself and focus on what you do like, you feel a heck of a lot better?
Try noticing the “best bites” in your life for a few days. I’m guessing you’ll start to notice that even though your plate is full, it’s full of delicious moments!
