Here we are, having just moved from the "past" -- 2017 -- into the "new" -- 2018. Many people have, will be, or are making New Year Resolutions. People may start out the 'new year' with inspiration, but most often, for most people, the new soon becomes old. Resolutions are forgotten. Soon one is just slogging along in the same old way.
I always find it fascinating, this idea of past and future—that our present ways of thinking and being are what we carry with us into the future. When we really understand this, we will want to be very careful with our present moments. We will want to be aware of what we are thinking, feeling, and doing right now. We won’t be worrying so much about the future because we will be focused on where we are now. In this body. In this moment.
