Thought 7: Connecting in Meaningful Ways 30 Day Challenge

How much of our time is spent looking behind us, or in front of us, or looking over the fence at what we don't have, but might want? How much of our time is spent somewhere else besides, here...now...in this one time element that we DO have? The present moment holds amazing potential that we mostly fritter away worrying about the past, or planning for the future. Your love affair with life should be with the present moment, with those who stand before you, or just now walked into your life. A tree in an acorn is like your world in this moment. Don't ever loose sight of the wonder of that simple acorn that is this present moment.

With Love,
Betsy

Day 41

Sometimes embracing your future means you have to let go of your past.  Letting go isn't always easy, but it can be done.  I find that, for myself, it's a process of looking at what I'm thinking about letting go, imagining what life will be like without it, sometimes putting it away for awhile to see if I'll miss it, and, in the end, sending it out into the world with the hope that it has the opportunity to bless some other person's life as much as it has blessed mine.

Day 30

Today dawned cooler in Panama Beach.  That being said, a cold day in Florida is better than winter in Wisconsin!  Today gave me some much needed time to work on my web page.  I am ALMOST ready to publish it, and I am really excited to move into the next stage of developing my path towards realizing my DREAMS!!!  Sometimes you have to let go of things in order to grab hold of the future, and that is where I am headed.
