How to Live Fully Centered in the Joy and Wisdom of the Present Moment

HJ: The past and the future are illusions. Everything exists in an ever-evolving, ever-shifting present moment and the more you can align your life and awareness with that fact, the better it will get.

Choosing This Moment

By Manal Ghosain | One With Now

“Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it.” ~Eckhart Tolle

Imagine if you went about your day experiencing each moment as if you’d chosen it—good or bad, wanted or unwanted, fun or painful. What would happen? How would your life be any different?

Let’s keep this thought in mind as we look into what we normally do.

We mostly live in anticipation of what we want, or in fear of what we don’t want. We either look forward to something, or want to avoid something at all costs.

So we spend the present moment living in the future. Or we go back to the past and reminisce about what was, or wallow in regret.
