I am being mightily tested since my return from idyllic Sedona. I woke at 4 am today and could not get back to sleep. Perhaps it was so that I could see the amazing moonlight display in the western sky just before the sun rose in the east. That was my shining moment. And then they day got off track. Nothing major….just nothing went as planned.
My mind was bouncing all over the place but I remembered what I read in The Untethered Soul this very morning – recognize the head chatter and dismiss it. Don’t give into it. I did (over and over) and I must say, it worked very well. I turned my attention to the gorgeous sky and the budding tree branches. I paid particular attention to the people I met while on my errands, giving them my full attention, a smile and genuine thank yous.
I tried really hard to forget my worries and be the person and spiritual being I was working so hard to be.
As the day wore on I actually became more energized. I almost forgot to write this post. Forgetting would mean I wasn’t in present time. But here I am. I am patting myself on the back, right now, in this very present moment.
