I interact with other people all day at work, whether leading meetings, sitting in the lunch room with co-workers, or stopping in the hallway for a casual chat. After work, I may head out to community meetings, where I contribute to local planning and  fundraising activities. In between times, I get caught up on my son's latest adventures. Dining alone is often my only chance to engage in reflection and mindfulness. I savour every moment (and every morsel) when I have the opportunity.
