When you go there, be here, totally! One great way to get old really fast is to create a huge pile of past in your psyche. How is this done? By your thought processes actually creating pride, anger, regret, self-pity, and let's not forget guilt. Let's face it, holding onto the past is an illusion. Right now, feel your presence. Die to the past each and every moment. Worried? Anxious? Your mind is actually creating an imaginary future that doesn't even exist. When you just slow down and consider, it's very insane to live this way. But isn't it the way of this crazy merry-go-round world? So, what you must do for your own peace of mind is simple. Become friends with the present moment. You see, you can cope with what's happening right now, but there is no way on earth that you can handle imaginary past and future events. Ask yourself if you are caught up in this dream, or more appropriately, this nightmare. The only escape is through the door of Now. Now is all there is! It's all we have because?...it's everything. It's One. Take this moment to feel your inner energy field and breathe, just breathe. No fear here! It's so easy when you discover that all you have to do is cope with the moment, just here, right Now. Anything you have that needs doing will be done in the spirit of awakened doing. Just stay present. peace, habsonfire
