The only moment you have is now

Now is the only moment you have.  There is no tomorrow, only today.  Does that change the way you're doing things now?

As I sit here realizing that truth, I find myself relaxing into my chair.  I feel my fingers slowing down on the keyboard. I feel my cheek muscles releasing, and my eyes softening.  Suddenly I am focused on the thoughts in my head related to this topic.  I look at the clutter around me and right here in this moment, it doesn't matter.  If this were my last moment on earth, I would want to be squarely in the flow, giving my full attention to the task in front of me.  After an afternoon of feeling pulled in a few directions and tying up loose ends for the weekend, I feel frazzled.  Until I realize that now is the only moment I have.  I can't live five minutes from now.  I only can live now.

Until next time,
