“True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied with what we have, which is sufficient, for he that is so wants nothing.” – Seneca

My young son is going to be 2 years old in a few short months and it’s been a joy to spend so much time with him every day. I am finally realizing how blessed I am to work from home and see him daily for many hours at a time. I literally see him grow before my eyes. By spending more time in the moment and rushing less through my day, I’m able to appreciate all the many things going on around me including the human development and bonding time with my son. That realization inspired me to write this post to better appreciate each and every single day of life.

You are alive today….at this very moment. You are choosing to read this blog post and do so many other things in the present moment. One thing after another. This is how you will spend your time this hour, this day and eventually your life. What you give your attention to grows and becomes part of you.

The NOW is precious. The NOW is where we live in real time. The Past Is gone. The Future is uncertain. The NOW is all you really have for a moment in time. What are you thinking right now?

The Here and NOW is what you have to dwell in and that is called living. To truly breathe in and breathe out this atmosphere in the present. Don’t get caught up in the regrets of yesterday, or the many fears of tomorrow. Live right NOW. Pay attention! This moment will be gone in a second. Here comes the next one and it’s gone too. Choose to Live Awesome NOW and your life will be a summary of that choice made each day.
