Description
When I grow up... when I succeed... when I was little... when I had fun. It is interesting that so much of our inner talk is in the past or future tense. We seem to be waiting for something to happen or dreaming of something that is but a memory. To live in the NOW (no other when) takes practice. The practice is to make ourselves consciously aware of our NOW. We do it many times and don't seem to pay much attention to that fact. We are living in the NOW when we become fully absorbed in what we are doing. When this happens, there is no sense of real time. It is then that we are totally immersed in our event. The great news is that we don't have to be actively involved in an activity to be in the NOW. It does take practice and we have to be persistent... but we can and will find ourselves fully in the moment. So today... just for today... we shall be fully immersed in our life. Today... just for today... we shall allow ourselves to fully feel each moment. Today... just for today... we shall become active participants in our lives. Today...just for today... we shall live in the NOW. Today is a new beginning... today is a new possibility. Today is the day that we seize control of our life's story and replace the actor in our story. What is responsible? Responsible in my dictionary means to have the ability to respond. So, are we responsible or are we just watching? You decide. How divine. How simply divine.
Our thought for the day is: 'Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has many; not on your past misfortune, of which all men have some.' Quote by Charles Dickens
May this day bring you the wonders of life... may this life bring you joy... and may joy bring you to your heart's desire forever more.

Four times in my life, I have come close to the open door (what we call death) and each time it was not anticipated. Now that I close in on that door (age) I am fully aware that "the moment" is all that there is for me, and for others. There comes a point where you realize that it is always the NOW, and past and future are only stories we make up about what did occur and what might occur, but they are "always", just our stories. Thanks for reminding me.....Geno

I have enjoyed seeing and reading what is here. I enjoy the depths of your image. It reminds me of the see, complete with bubbles, shells and flows. As for The Now, I'll get to that later (laugh).
