The present moment is all there is. Sometimes being in the present moment feels odd, uncomfortable, spacious in a way I don't know how to be with. Meditating and just being, with and in the here and now, is so simple and yet very complicated when the mind is busy. Learning to be here now, to cherish the spaciousness in this second, to inhabit the bridge between thoughts, between what has been and what is becoming, is an ongoing adventure. Right now is perfectly complete. I am complete in the seeming incompleteness of the story I am living in and into. Even when the mind says otherwise. Even with the desire for something different than what I see, sense, hear or feel in the moment. Choosing to see and experience the present moment, this one, right here, right now, as a wink from Life, a gesture of delight from the Universe, an invitation to grace and joy - this is what I tap into to stay motivated and in alignment with miracles. Yet again, Gratitude guides the way. This choice making, this high road trek, it requires practice, for sure. The effort is SO worth it. Getting the view from the top of the mountain requires hiking uphill. Satisfying and sometimes seat producing, the effort raps great rewards. The mind wanders into fear territory... absolutely. This detouring, like a slip on the unpaved path up the mountainside, reminds me to get back on the path of presence and faith. Decisions in the detail of thought create my life, shape my destiny. I am responsible so I pay attention and take action. If thoughts shape life, I am on board for tending to my thought life. The best, the beautiful, the blessings - high vibrating living is what I get to choose, to cultivate, to plug into. Not always easy, absolutely possible and worthwhile. Choose the thoughts that feel nurturing and supportive and peaceful and enlivening and joyful. Let it be playful. Let is be challenging. Let it be a process. I am responsible for my perspective. I will continue to shape it & thrive.
