In the Moment

If you are reading this, I urge you to take a deep breath. Focus on your breath; focus on the moment.

Because all we actually have is this moment. Sure, there’s pain and accomplishment in the past. But as Rafiki would say, the past is in the past. There’s also aspiration in the future, we all have our own aspirations. And sure, we can hope and plan for the future, but there’s no guarantee the future will be as we want it- in fact, it rarely ever is.

That’s why we need to focus on this moment. And this one. You can hope for the future, but again, all we really have is now. That’s why,if you want something, you must act now.

But don’t get me wrong! If it’s something that requires patience, then the act of setting it aside and doing something else while waiting patiently is itself the right action.
