Isn't it interesting how our life today isn't what we thought it would be? It is also interesting how we see our lives verses how others see our lives. We all look through different lenses; what is real is in the eyes of the one seeing.
If you understand what I am referring to, you obviously spend time comparing, analyzing, and possibly regretting. You are hanging out in the past.
If we spend one minute of time thinking about yesterday, we are wasting today. What was felt, learned, or experienced is done - over - adios! The only time revisiting the past is beneficial is when one needs to recount details in order to release negative influence. Spending our time recalling pleasant memories also prevents one from truly digesting the pleasures of the present moment.
Of course, what I am suggesting is impossible. Our minds circle around and through the past, present, and future every second. Goals of controlling thoughts that only produce positive seeds for the future would make sense, but none of us have that depth of mind control.
So, my thought for the day: consciously try to focus only on the moment you are inhaling and exhaling. Try it for ten minutes today, twenty tomorrow, etc. You will be surprised how that helps the past stay in the back of your thoughts, not interfering with any pleasure that is right in front of you, right now!
Until the next time: Live while you live!
Call 911, without hesitation, if you are in danger of hurting yourself or someone else.
