LIVE IN THE MOMENT

"REALISE DEEPLY THAT THIS MOMENT IS ALL YOU EVER HAVE." - Eckhart Tolle

I have had a great life lesson over the last couple of weeks, because my daily routine has been jiggled and I have had to surrender to what is rather than do what I thought needed doing.  Amazingly life has carried on and I have lost nothing, in fact I have gained wonderful moments and memories with my kids and friends and a bit more insight into myself and a deep sense of this moment....what a gift....

I have always thought of myself as a pretty laid back person, but to be honest I think that it has seemed like that on the surface because it is something I have wanted to portray, but underneath I have been a duck treading water because the feelings I have had inside have been tense and I have been judging myself all the time according to what I think I should have been doing and then I have totally been missing the moment.  

That exquisite moment when the sun feels so heavenly on my skin and the weaver birds pop into the garden to say thank you for the veggie scraps and greet me. The shiny silky feathers on the ibis looking for food on the grass, the perfect air around me connecting every single thing on this planet. Just being in my body with no thought except that I am so grateful for my life, and the humongous joy I feel and endless gratitude for my unbelievable kids and friends.  Loving the gift of life.

Every thing is as it is meant to be, every moment is perfect. No need to do what I thought I needed to be doing because when the time is right I will be doing it.

Surrender to the perfection of this moment....

I have laughed more, judged less, had fun, played, slept, enjoyed my food, kissed and hugged my kids even more than usual, and stressed less.  Bliss...

You should try it too....

With much love
