It's really not the easiest thing to do at times, but you really have to slow down and connect with the moment. You have to be "here."
You can spend a lifetime living in the past or the future. You can spend a lifetime trying to live in places that don't actually exist.
Truth is, you can't go back and change the past and you can't go to the future because there's absolutely no way to get there.
That doesn't mean that people don't try to live in the future. That doesn't mean that people don't try to skip out of the storm that's their life right now and avoid everything they know they need to fix.
The only time you have is now and the only place you can ever go...is right here. You are this moment. That might sound hippy dippy but it's actually the truth. It's as true as true gets.
When you actually let go of the past and the future and show up right now, you give yourself access to something incredible. You give yourself the opportunity to "live" for the first time in a time and place that has access to all sorts of mysteries.
There's an incredible amount of power when you live in the present moment. You give yourself the opportunity to show up in live in the magic display of life. That type of living is always living in a grand mystery. It's living in a time and place that has no bounds and can knock your socks off every single day.
What happens when you start avoiding life? Tragedy.
But you get to make this decision every single day. Don't think that just because you decided one day to avoid life that you can't come back and make a better decision the next day. It's your choice if you want to live the life that will lead you incredible amounts of unhappiness or happiness. That decision is on you.
That's 100% your choice completely.
Not gonna do that.
Decide to live in the present, to head straight into life, and to take the challenges that come your way.
