I was at O'Hare waiting for my flight and what an amazing place to people watch.
The odor in the air was familiar but not imediately recognized until I saw the line for McDonalds.
Of course there would be a McDonalds in the United terminal.
As I stood waiting for my flight, my eyes went to a very young mom with a very small baby in a very large stroller. The mom was looking at her baby while eating her french fries and talking on her cell phone. The baby began to fuss so the mom stopped eating her french fries and with ONE hand was able to prepare the bottle for her child, all the while holding onto her iPhone. Once she propped the bottle up for the baby she got onto her Facebook account, checked in, continued eating her fries and bites of her hamburger never once looking at either.
It got me thinking about mindlessness, or mindfulness.
Do we ever stop and eat and ponder and feel full or do we just fill up because it's there.
