Being intentional is easier said than done. It’s easier imagined than executed.
So here’s where we inspire you every week with a simple picture and a few words.
Think of this as a chance to help you realize the simplicity of intentional.
Be inspired. Allow gratitude and joy and beauty to sneak in with every intention. And then won’t you come back and share your moment with us? Or leave a link in the comments to your blog where you celebrate {A Glimpse into an Intentional Life}.
I bet you’re just dying to know how cracking a nut could possibly mark an intentional life, aren’t you? Because taking a moment to “crack” my food from its natural state gives me a moment to appreciate it a little more fully. When I put time and effort into something, I’m more likely to be intentional about the fruit of my labor. When I’m not rushing to gobble down my food (’cause what’s the rush…I still have to crack my next bite!), I have the chance to appreciate the flavors that dance across my tongue.
How many times have I shoveled food into my mouth, rushing to get through a meal and completely lost appreciation for the flavor, the texture, the substance? Being intentional about what we put in our body is not just about choosing our foods, but choosing to actually eat with intention as well.
Savor the goodness. Make it intentional.
Well, I must say, I never thought of eating as an intentional thing to do. I guess that I will see it differently now.
