Episode #21 — Making Better Nows Now
Wisdom teaches us to accept the NOW, as it is with no judgments, no pretty and no ugly: just IS.
ISNESS. NOWNESS. RIGHT NOWNESS.
Do you remember a single moment in your life that wasn’t right now? Can you say, “Wow. I had a good time yesterday today.” Or, “I had the most wonderful tomorrow today.”
Of course not. All we have is NOW.
Accepting the NOW frees up all the energy you have been using to resist the now. Think of all the regret you have expended over your past and worry over the future. That activity of regret and worry caused you to not have a good now. So, you tried to fix it with more worry, fretting or going to buy something or fill the void with another person for a short night of avoiding right NOW.
However, we assured, you will never escape right now.
We can make our nows better though, even blissful, if we accept everything as it is and then act in ways that will produce better nows.
All our thoughts, words and actions are like tossing sand into a fan: they blow right back in our faces. If you don’t want sand in your face, throw flower petals in the fan. Then, you will be covered in color and fragrance and happiness.
Make the commitment to change your NOW, NOW.
