Oftentimes in western society, the push to be optimistic and to think positive is drilled into us from a young age. However, if one is beginning to become more mindful, the transition to mindfulness may feel a little jarring.

Wissen ist auch in unserer modernen Gesellschaft immer noch ein knappes Gut, genau betrachtet sogar das knappste überhaupt. Echtes Wissen und Können haben auf dem Arbeitsmarkt nach wie vor einen hohen Stellenwert und sind keineswegs an jeder Ecke für Kleingeld zu bekommen.

För Christinas make kom den i sovrummet, på midsommardagen samtidigt som hans fru var på väg hem från landet med deras treåriga dotter och fyra månader gamla son.
