Why would it? Rather the opposite, if you are mindful of what you're doing and what's around you, you love it all, because there are no barriers (of mind) between you and it. As Buber puts it, "I and it" becomes "I and thou."

Define mindfulness, like a jedi? Like a Daoist? Like a warrior? What? And love doesn't make us human, we are glorified primates.
