Appreciate where I am - right here and right now

I know people must often go through rough times for the good times to arrive…. I have been there before, but it is hard to see this and fully comprehend this goal under the amazingly dark cloud that i havd found myself under. I have been in such horrible financial hardship for the last several years… and it is just now getting worse right before a fresh start. I have to let go the negative thinking patterns that are holding me here and keeping me fromletting go and enjoying my day to day life. I need to appreciate the now….. there is so much more going on right now than my problems and my issues. These are what I need to focus on.

This is such a challenge for me… because right now where I am is not what I want in my life….. but I think that I need to hold onto the fact that only THIS, right now right here, IS LIFE! There is no past or no future… just right now moments. One day I will be able to look back and say remember when….. and have some memories of being fully alive in my moments. To have remembered LIVING, not just existing. Tomorrow I will attempt to stop and befully in the moment, I will make myself do this several times throughout the day. I will really see the world, listen, smell and experience. Tomorrow is my first day- NO TONIGHT is the only moment I have. I am there now, and I can do this.
