The Present

What is your favorite place to go in your city?

The past can only be remembered. The present can only be experienced. The future has to be crafted- Sadhguru

Where ever in the world we may reside or prefer to be we cannot experience it unless we are in the present moment. Hence, our favorite place to be should be the present moment. As humans we are constantly ruminating on past incidences or planning amd predicting future occurrences. However, in the bargain we take the present for granted. The mental pendulum moving to and fro from past to future leads to insecurities, anxieties and mental disturbance. We are so deeply rooted in the past and future that we miss out on the here and now… the present moment which is rapidly becoming the past.

One moment earlier is already the past and this moment right now is soon getting there. Before it gets there let’s learn to experience it right here right now. Let’s be fully aware of this present moment and have a deep sense of gratitude towards it. Let’s experience it to the fullest and be grateful for having a chance to experience the same.

As we speak there are so many people leaving this world yet not knowing that the next moment was not in their destiny. Hence enjoy and experience the miracle that is life right now and here. Because who knows the next moment may or may not be included in our fate.

Hence when we realise that our moments on earth are numbered where is the time to wollow in sorrow and self pity or ponder over someone’s hurtful actions? Let’s just let go and live the moment right now before it disappears into the alluring past… never to return.
