Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why?
No… I do not spend more time, I do it all the time.. why? Because I don’t know how not to think about the future or the past.
I have been trying harder for the last two weeks though…. To think about the future… I will try to think about tomorrow; the nearest day from this day… I am no longer obedient to the thinking such as “what about next year?” What will happen 5 years from now?”, in 15 years.. am I going to be ready for BLA BLA BLA…. No… I limit myself now… The future is tomorrow, in a literal way. The day after this day.
To think about the past, I limit myself to what happened yesterday. The day before today… To all the things that happened; one, three, ten, twenty years ago, I said, those stories are dead already, I don’t want to re-live it.
I’m still full of worry and regret, but I can feel their grips on me has loosened a bit… And it’s a good sign.
This is a good day.
May all of us be blessed in abundance, calm in mind, and able to appreciate the beauty of all things, with ease, amen.
