This is my second week of trying to post something for the spiritual truth to 'savor the moments of life to live now, not in the past or the future. Last week I gave up and decided the week had just been too overwhelming to try to think of something to savor. Sure, I had enjoyed wonderful moments, like when I danced with my three granddaughters at a Billy McLaughlin concert. I always cherish the times I'm with that trio of pure joy.
This week I again spent time pondering what to post. Then, I understood the problem. I had been thinking of the past to try to find moments of which I could share. Yet, the truth is not about that. The truth tells us to live--not in the past or the future. It means to be purely present in the now. I had been revisiting the past to find moments of joy to write about rather than seeing the pure joy in the moment of writing. I had been violating the spiritual truth everytime I sat down to write. But not now. Now, I'm perfectly content to be sitting at my computer, fingers moving across the keyboard, typing about nothing other than the beauty of this moment of awareness. And when I'm finished, I'll be totally content with that as well. I love this truth! Now, I just have to remember to apply it more often.
Next week I will be revisiting the truth: Faith, when shared, is powerful. I'm thinking the week is going to be a grand one! Life is good. Thank you, God.
