Are you worried? Do you have many "what if" thoughts? You are identified with your mind, which is projecting itself into an imaginary future situation and creating fear. There is no way that you can cope with such a situation, because it doesn't exist. It's a mental phantom. You can stop this health- and life-corroding insanity simply by acknowledging the present moment. Become aware of your breathing. Feel the air flowing in and out of your body. Feel your inner energy field. All that you ever have to deal with, cope with, in real life-as opposed to imaginary mind projections-is this moment. Ask yourself what "problem" you have right now, not next year, tomorrow, or five minutes from now. What is wrong with this moment? You can always cope with the Now, but you can never cope with the future-nor do you have to. The answer, the strength, the right action or the resource will be there when you need it, not before, not after. — Eckhart Tolle, from the book The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment #kindlequotes #eckhartTolle #worry #theFuture #fear #thePresent #breathing #thisMoment #theNow https://www.instagram.com/p/CleAn1Ku-jM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Only Thing

As the pot of oatmeal boils over, dribbling steaming

gruel onto the stovetop, sticking to the metal, staining

the iron grill, it feels like the last insult to another shitty

morning, month, year of holding the blind and perpetual

eruptions of entropic chaos at bay, the unending insult

of life crawling out of the pit with breaching tentacles

eager to engulf us, a spoiled apple, a cracked windshield,

another late payment, a reprimand at work, the vast tundra

of loneliness that frames it all like some gaping maw that

reminds me that human desire is indeed the enemy to peace,

that whatever momentary joy I find in this single instant,

in the pause between gusts of wind, in the slant of sunlight

on a wooden floor, the shimmer rising from heated stone,

the nod of a daffodil, my toes curled in woolen socks,

in the writing of these words, in the tiny space between

letters that often goes unnoticed, is the only thing there is.

On aging: sometimes I bemoan my diminishing future and so remind myself the ultimate pleasure is found in the present moment. After all, thinking about the future or the past takes place in the present moment.

👋Good morning from California.

So apparently Kookheon and Yuvin’s fan meeting sold out in 1 minute😭

The song they’re releasing is called «Blurry» and will be out 24th of August! It’s a love song dedicated to their fans, heonidans and yujadans (the names of Kookeon fans and Yuvin fans)! 💛

Regrann from @therealfitnessbeauty - If you're not one of those people who wake up every day jazzed to hit the gym and eat lightly seasoned chicken and broccoli… don't worry. You're not alone. Following and sticking to a fitness and nutrition plan is tough, and there will be days when you can't find any sense of fitness motivation at all. Just remember you started this with a goal, now finish IT. #LetsGETIT —————————- www.ShaniqueGrant.com —————————- #ThePRESENT #OlympiaPrep2018 #IFBB #MsInternational2018 #ProjectAD #TeamAD #ChicagoBased #Chicago - #regrann
