I love this 😊 In a similar way for much of my life I was chasing fulfillment, thinking that if I changed careers or moved countries or whatever, I’d find it.

Then I realised I was just looking for a feeling of aliveness. A feeling of being whole (fulfillment). And for that, I can simply cultivate awareness of my body, feel things more deeply, and appreciate the life I already have.

Thanks for sharing Tintin, really enjoy your articles ✨

I might be the biggest culprit of 'arrival fallacy.' I've only recently started incorporating a gratitude practice right before my meditation.
