This week's wisdom is on the power of living
in the moment. That ability that we all have to be present...
allowing all this moment offers us, and all we have to offer it.
Years ago, I used to be a very future oriented and thinking person.
Always saying to myself and others, "Tomorrow's gonna be so much
better than today. I can't wait!" While not even realizing that
first, I wasn't even dealing with the realities of what I needed to face
in the present - not enough money, not loving my work, looking for others
to validate my level of excitement... and a host of other externally
validating needs that I had at the time.
What I didn't realize that I was literally draining my energy from the
present out into the future. I remember saying to myself things
like, "I'll have more tomorrow if only this would change" or
"If I only had more intuition... I wish I had more wisdom... maybe
tomorrow..." Without realizing that I was spending all my energy
hoping for something better to happen next week or next year, instead of
listening to my intuition and taking a breath to be present.
"Art of living" (
http://www.artofliving.org
) teaches his students to be here now - in this moment.
For this is the only moment we have - as you're reading this wisdom now -
this is the only moment you have. This is the place where God is, in
this space of time, a time like no other - a time to listen to your Heart,
not just your mind - and trusting your Heart's wisdom like you would a
trusted friend or loved one. As you read this, think of all the wonderful
things you have to be grateful for today. Your health, your job, your
intellect, your physical body (your own temple), your home, your
friends... the list is as infinite as you are.
Take a moment to reflect... to embrace the real you - the True you that
honors people and is creative, the True you that is sacred, as are your
Dreams in life...
Pause for a moment...
Breathe...
Listen to the song inside you... that wonderful resonance inside you that
longs to be heard...
And when you listen to its sweet call, you are present, you are loved, you
are infinite, you are divine. Allow this magnificent feeling to wash over
you... to move through you... as if you were on a beautiful sandy beach of
your Dreams... smelling the salt sea air... feeling the gentle tradewinds
move through your hair... feeling the soft sand at your feet... feeling
grounded...
Allowing any stress you may have to just effortlessly wash away with with
flow of the tides... Remembering that you are part of the azure ocean
before you... it is your Source and you are its beginning...
Feeling present... feeling grounded... allowing this moment to be you...
And you are better for this...
And so it is...
As you make your way today, remember this feeling. This feeling that
you have all you need to create what you desire already inside you.
Knowing that you are on purpose... embracing each moment for its sweetness
and beauty - even when it seems difficult. As you do this, you will
attract what you most passionately desire.
We wish you many blessings,
