Appreciating now

I love those moments that wake me up from an overthinking-everplanning loop!  Here’s a share for today … Today a poem from Oriah Mountain Dreamer, The Call, stopped me in my tracks… these words resonated especially …

 

” … There is nowhere to go.  What you are looking for is right here.  

Open the fist clenched in wanting and see what you already hold in your hand.  

 

There is no waiting for something to happen, no point in the future to get to.  

All you have ever longed for is here in this moment, right now. 

 

You are wearing yourself out with all this searching. Come home and rest.

How much longer can you live like this? Your hungry spirit is gaunt, your heart stumbles.

All this trying.  Give it up!

 

Wise words!! Let it go and see what happens.
