Love this reminder, Debbie. I used to tell people that life was like a string of pearls. Every moment is another special and unique pearl to string onto your strand of life.
Living in the Now is more important than we know. There is a well-known book by Eckhart Tolle with the title, "The Power of Now." It's like many spiritual thoughts in that some people will not be able to grasp fully what it means. To live in the now is very profound and has far-reaching effects in our lives.
The same bible verse, for example, can be understood so differently depending upon the person who hears it. Jesus knew that. Only those who are seeking and open could really get those sayings about being born again ("How can a man be born again?" "The kingdom of God is within.")
We can make plans but we only get there by living in this present moment. "Yesterday is gone, tomorrow is but a promise but today is a gift which is why it is called the present."
What we do in this very moment will determine what happens in the future. Yes, even if we are in a long line and at peace or in a state of fury and frustration.
Thank you for sharing your everyday life with us so we are reminded to put our spiritual thoughts into practice.
