It’s pretty cool how letting go of the past and living right now makes right now pretty cool…

I got to hang out with mom today. Took her home from rehab and helped her get settled back home and things ready for life as an independent elder…I didn’t think about the past and what happened then or the future and what would happen then…no more “then” only “zen.”

Such an awesome moment when I tuned into the moment. Mom so happy to be home, so grateful for my help, so truly inspired I felt as my heart warmed and I realized how much love I have for her. My soul engaged with the energy of her triumphs and suddenly I was proud of her strength both physical and emotional.  I think she feels the difference in my gaze…

To live in the moment…to let go of the past and only whisper thoughts of the future…whispers of only what we want from the future…no condemnation of what might happen or could…feel the air on our lips as it passes over on the way to our lungs…feel the ground underfoot as we stand at attention to the moment that is now…life is a gift…live it!
