Hi everyone
I hope you are coping with the heat and trust all will be okay for you and your home if the orange warning predicted storm and winds hit this area later this afternoon.
No meeting as we are on a summer break. So, as last week I have found something among my spiritual paperwork and again author unknown.
Love to all

Living in the Moment
Life, in all of its fullness, is happening right now. When our thoughts are elsewhere, beautiful opportunities and moments are being passed over and lost to the flow of time. And, though we cannot possibly fully experience each leaf that falls to the ground, sometimes we get so attached to reaching our goals that we don´t pay attention to the wonder of all around us. When we live in a world that exists only in our heads, we miss life itself. There is so much to be enjoyed and appreciated that we need to remember to pay attention to the present moment because it is the only space in which we can experience being alive.
We learn from our past, but dwelling on it keeps us from being fully present to life in the moment. We create our lives with our thoughts. But, focusing so firmly on our imagined future keeps us from co-creating with the Universe, so we might never allow ourselves to live our dreams as they manifest. It is possible to be so happy and comfortable in our inner worlds that we lose touch with the business of life.
Life must be attended to, and if we are wise, we can enjoy it at the same time. We can awaken ourselves to the moment we are living right now by taking a deep breath and simply looking around. In doing so, we refocus our attention to the real world. Then we can learn to appreciate the process of working toward our goals as much as their attainment. Balancing ourselves between the present moment and eternity, we can experience and enjoy the full range of reality available to us as spiritual beings living on Earth.
