The more I watch my mind, the more I find it sweeps me away. I find peace as I gently return myself to my current moment, my current breath, my current self.
Resting here in this moment feels like home. It feels warm and snuggly. My mind seeks a future and relives a past, but my happiness is here, now. It always has been and always will.
In looking back, I realize that even if the times when I should have been reveling in the joy and pleasure of the moment, my mind was fretting and fearing the future. Most often I tend to pull my self away from enjoyment with fear of the future or fear of losing the enjoyment of now. How ridiculous. I never experience the pleasure of now if I'm constantly fearing it's loss. It's already gone or never was.
Focusing on the now. Living in this moment and enjoying it as truly fully as possible. Knowing full well it will slip away only to be followed by another moment that will be equally as perfect and needs to be equally as treasured.
