In the present or not?


I try to live in the present, seeing everything around me and experiencing the day. I don’t often succeed. Most of the time, we live between our ears and in our conscious mind worrying about so many things. We worry about what might happen and forget that the only place we can be is here, right now. We forget to project our conscious out away from our mind and take in all of the wonders around us. The kinetic sculpture I pass every time I go to class. Yesterday I stopped in front of the sculpture (titled Tai Chi) and was mesmerized as it danced with the wind. Leaves are blowing everywhere. You can see the structure of the trees. If only it were not so cold.
