InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration
November 15, 2023
This Daily Inspiration was written by Marie T. Russell.
The focus for today is: I live each present moment to the fullest.
Staying present sounds like it should be an easy thing to do, but it makes sense that we get caught up in the past or the future. After all there are a lot of past moments and future ones, but there in only one present moment. So, the numbers are not in our favor... There's a lot more of the past to dwell on, or the future to dream of, than there is of the present moment.
Yet, the present moment is really all that exists. The past is done... gone... dead. The future is... well, it doesn't exist at the moment, so it's not real, at least not yet.
Yet all of our past moments and even our future moments make up the "now" moment. What we do now is based on the past, and the future will be based on what we do now. So it is extremely important for us to stay present and focus on the now moment, and what we will do with it. The more fully we live the present moment, the better our future will be. The more we make our attention be in the present moment, the more glorious will be the future that grows out of this moment.
