We live our lives in the most fleeting slivers of time. Moments...that if taken for granted can be missed. Opportunities and chances for growth...shared trickles of movement that lead us to another level...or another thought...and another space...where another moment can take place.
In any given moment a miracle can happen. A message of truth given to you by the heavens..by God...by another's spirit...by the truth that lives within each of us that is untapped yet exists as clearly and focused as the rush we get up our spines when someone speaks a truth to us...
When someone speaks a truth to you...it rings in you like a bell. Things that you recognize...as truth. There are times when you might not be ready to accept that truth...so you find a "reason"...a justification really...to ignore or otherwise disregard it...but it still rings that bell.
Truths like;
Common sense is not common.
Love conquers all.
Communication is the key.
One lives their life in a series of moments...and the moments pass.
Time is a healer.
and...
The value is in the journey...not the destination.
Hearing the bell inside you and responding to the sound of a truth is as natural as breathing however there are those of us and times I think...for all of us...that we get in our own way. In those moments where a justification is more important for one than hearing an actual truth...hearing the real...then we know we are not in the now. We can not be fully present if we are not in the moment. If you are there but not really there then it doesn't really matter to those around you...if you are not fully engaged.
Being in the now...is hard....making no mistake about it...keeping in each moment is actually virtually impossible because even watching the moments pass takes one out of the moment...however...the lesson is in staying in the moment to the best of one's ability...which to me...means...not numbing out...or engaging in or seeking behaviors that cause you to get out of the moment...stay numb...not being present...and even though there are times when we all seek those moments...because we get overwhelmed...life....is just...too...damned...short...to keep getting caught up in that repetitively...it is a trap...
As hard as it is...staying in the now...being here...right where you are right now...staying in your truth....and staying in your moment...is the real...is where God can do His work...and is where you can find yourself...is where one can find their own personal truth...and find their serenity...
As the wind blows....

First, I agree with you. It is important to stay tuned in. It is important to be in the now, to be in the moment and really absorb it. But it is also understandable that sometimes we can't... cause it is too painful. But... what appears to me most, is that there is a balance. (Duh) We need to make sure we are living... live every moment, the good the bad and the ugly... but also don't deny the future and the past. Remember, and plan... but I do think it is most important to LIVE.
