When I do my weekly grocery shopping at my local Hannaford, I always get (or try to get) individual cups of plain yogurt.\u00a0 I love the flavor and texture of the store brand.\u00a0 The plain nonfat Greek variety is my favorite!\u00a0 The texture, flavor and the ingredients are perfect.\u00a0 This yogurt has no artificial ingredients.\u00a0 There are no words in the ingredients list that I can’t pronounce or understand.<\/p>\n

This product is healthy.\u00a0 Yummy.\u00a0 And, the price is right!<\/p>\n

But, getting this yogurt is almost like going on a quest.\u00a0 For starters, it’s on the very top shelf in the refrigerator section.\u00a0 Often, I can’t even find it.\u00a0 I know where it’s supposed to be but I’m not quite tall enough to see up there.<\/p>\n

I begin by seeking out an employee who’s a few inches taller.\u00a0 When I can’t find one, I look for a ladder or step stool.\u00a0 Finally, my final option is to find something on a shelf, like a fly swatter, that I can use to push the yogurt I can’t see to the front of the shelf.<\/p>\n

Then, finally, I push it out the front and grab the cups and put them in my grocery cart.<\/p>\n

By this time, I’m so determined that I clean out the store.\u00a0 I buy every cup of the plain Hannaford’s yogurt I can find.<\/p>\n

For me, this situation is a challenge.\u00a0 It’s not about my height.\u00a0 But, it is about my height.<\/p>\n

Life is all about limitations.\u00a0 What I can and cannot do.\u00a0 How much can I ignore?<\/p>\n

Shopping at the Hannaford’s is especially all about limitations.<\/p>\n

Getting to the heart of the matter, life is all about limitations.\u00a0 This is one thing that is true for each and every one of us.<\/p>\n

Shifted to the bottom line, limitations are all about acceptance.\u00a0 This is not about being a victim.\u00a0 It IS about doing whatever we need to do to get the job right.\u00a0 Limitations are, literally, a means to an end.<\/p>\n

It is also about acceptance.\u00a0 I occupy a space on this planet in my body.\u00a0 This space is mine and mine alone.<\/p>\n

This limitation becomes, and is, a meditation.<\/p>\n

This space and my body are mine.<\/p>\n

Each day, I take a few moments to come back to this.<\/p>\n

I pay attention to my breath.<\/p>\n

I pay attention to my arms and my legs.<\/p>\n

I pay attention to the temperature and smell and texture of the air around me.<\/p>\n

I focus on this opportunity to realize that what I need is right in front of me if I’ll only recognize it and pay attention.<\/p>\n

I am fully alive in this moment.<\/p>\n

After this meditation, I return to the room around me, walk into the kitchen, and have a cup of my favorite Hannaford Yogurt.<\/p>\n
