Are you proactive or reactive?I know, right away you thought, like me, That's the fallacy of false alternatives. Because there are many other ways to be. You can just be -
active
the way children dance when they feel like it, or practice falling down or doing handstands.
Or -
inactive
Resting, say. Dawdling. It's not a crime.
But maybe the best is not to be this way or that way, just sit there and
~ Be ~
Being is, I think,
receptive
Listening, taking in what's there. You can do this sitting in meditation or at a party - there are never enough good listeners at any gathering. That's my experience, anyway.
