Your purpose is to LIVE in "The NOW."

I know it has been quite some time since I have written.  Some people have told me that I shouldn't anymore, until I live more like how I write.  Then some tell me they miss reading what I post.  I believe everyone can be hypocritical at times.  All we can do is keep walking forward, forget negativity, and never look back.

I am sure many of us struggle with the fact that our past is no longer ours, we keep reaching back hoping that you can have it again.  Some may be able to touch your past but your past has nothing new to say.  You can go back, believing it will turn out differently, yet ... you relive it.  Living and hoping the past will change is like having an addiction, you want to let go ... you go forward ... then all of a sudden you find yourself wanting what you once had, what was once yours.  I sometimes wish that I would have been guided by the present moment instead of wanting my past to change.  Wanting what was once yours, is the best way to keep breaking your heart and make yourself miserable. 

I am sure many of us struggle with not being able to control our future.  The only future you can control is what you are doing right now, to "maybe" create your future tomorrow.  Notice I said "create YOUR OWN future," not someone else's.  You are in control of Me, Myself, and I ... not someone else.  Some people try and rush life,  and relationships ... recipe for heartache and disaster. I used to try and rush life, and relationships and it never works.  We all have a plan designed for us, but rest assured whatever your future is, you will surely get there. 

"Realize deeply that the present moment is all you will ever have." This quote is spot on, wake up and realize yesterday is your PAST, what you once had is no longer yours, do not reach for it again. Wake up and realize that tomorrow is the FUTURE and is not promised.  The best thing WE can do is enjoy every minute of the present.  Do not look back, Do not look forward.  Live right now!
