Living in the Moment

Life...It's always moving. Whether we want it to or not, it continues to move. We can lay in bed and refuse to participate. But, you know one thing about life. It doesn't need our permission to go on. So, what do we do? What do we do when things are not going the way we want them to? What do we do when we need a change to happen like yesterday?

There's something that I absolutely love. It is called living in the moment. In the moment everything is absolutely perfect. I know at this very moment, I am in the world of typing and expressing myself. That is it. Nothing else matters. Nothing else is allowed to enter my mind. Living in the moment. I like that. It causes you to be fully present. Half of you can't be in next week and the other half in last night's debate. No, all of you is right here right now.

Living in the moment. Yes, that's how I like to live. Try it. You may actually smell the roses, notice someone's smile, or hear your friend's complete conversation. While on your daily commute, you may even hear all of the notes in the wonderful classical music playing.  Living in the moment.

"Living in the moment means letting go of the past and not waiting for the future. It means living your life consciously, aware that each moment you breathe is a gift."  Oprah Winfrey
