Being in the present moment. OMG I struggle with this. And to be honest, I never had much of an understanding how important it is to be present. It's where we live though. I have list of things that I need to achieve, and until I do, I have essentially held myself to ransom. I need to let my attachment to my goals go, and focus and be attached to the process and journey.
We had sizzler for lunch today with the boys. Another way to share something special with them. It's nice to get out like that as a family and do that.
As we attempt to understand ourselves and our struggles with life's endeavours, we may find peace in the observation of a flower. Ask yourself: At what point in a flower's life, from seed to full bloom does it reach perfection?
The Practicing Mind by Thomas M. Sterner
Transition has a way of holding out this idea of what it means to be perfect in front of us. Well to be perfectly honest, life, not just transition, does that. I have transitioned, and I have had surgery. But now what? What next? An interesting question. Life is the journey and it's a daily step by step journey. Like even right now, I am writing this blog. That is my process at this very moment. I desire to not let my mind wander to the future and what I hope to achieve out of life, or the future, or this month, or this year, or today. Because right now I am achieving my goal of writing a blog. It will never be finished. It is a work in progress always.
