Live in the present moment

Feeling more mindful 2 weeks ago

Living in the present moment and not getting iritated by the traffic noise is hard, it naturally makes me cringe and then sends my mind off in a spin, it reminds me of all kinds of things that I am frustrated with, but I am slowly learning each time to come back to the present time, with calm words of just now in my mind.

I can't help but notice 5 months ago

that when I am really enjoying something, I want to capture it and make it last forever, or at least be able to recreate it/experience it again. But thats not really enjoying the moment, is it? No – because enjoying the moment is all about being fully IN it, not thinking of the future, or how I want this to happen again and again…then Im not fully present. It takes away from the beauty of the moment.

and time and time and time again, I realize that living in the present moment, really experiencing and enjoying it, is THE key to happiness~

I thought I have gotten past this tendency of dwelling in the past but now that I have a new life in a new place and with a new family I often find myself how my life was. I don’t want to miss on the blessings I am enjoying now so I would like to remind myself everyday that I should live i the present moment and enjoy it!

the only way i really feel ok is when i live in the present moment. i am going thru a lot of stress over a seperation from my husband…and if i start to think of all the shit he ahs done, or wondering what he is doing or wish this or wish that i start to unravel! BUT when i live in the present and only think of what is going on with me right now i am fine and feel good. i need 2 do this more!

This goal takes continuous practice. It is so easy to slip into the habitual thinking about the past or future. But life is experienced in the here in the now; the present moment is all we truly have, and if we miss it, we’re missing life, really~

A continued struggle, but I’m there.



Constant Focus 2 years ago

This goal is something that I need to constantly remind myself to do. It helps to focus on me and what is going on in my own life instead of on other people. I think I have gotten a lot better at it.



Getting Easier 3 years ago

This is getting a little easier. What keeps me stuck in the past more than anything is not being seen for who I am, not being acknowledged for who I am.

I know I can’t expect that from everyone I meet in my life but it sure does hurt when its someone I love and care about deeply.

But each day is getting better and easier.



Very Sad 3 years ago

This is quite difficult right now. I lost my sweetie and I miss her so very much.
