Sometimes You Just Have to Let Go
Some of you may have been following my progress to be in the present moment for the last few weeks. Knowing that it takes at least a month to create a new habit, I wanted to hold myself accountable by blogging about my efforts.Things went really well for 24 days and then the Universe/God decided to test my […]
Present Time Post #15
I became aware of something new today. When you give yourself and your attention to another, there is only present time. Asking “How can I help, how can I be here for you?” places you instantly present in the moment. When your attention is fully on helping another, you get out of your head and […]
