I can be pretty dense sometimes.

Right Now Is Everything
People find themselves with their heads in the clouds or looking back or looking forward. Perhaps being in the present is the opportunity that’s being missed.
The good old days are not coming back. No one is promised tomorrow. So, all we have is now. There’s good things happening to see just by keeping your eyes open.
Right now is as live as life gets. It’s hard for others to understand that fact considering how tough reality can be and the temptation is to avoid it.
Keep your feet under you and don’t overthink stuff. I’m going to have a hard time with that.
Quote Of The Day
We do not go into the desert to escape people but to learn how to find them; we do not leave them in order to have nothing more to do with them but to find out the way to do them the most good.
Thomas Merton
Who Am I?
The question of “Who Am I” is a deep one. It’s different from who I am which seems to be more of a statement of fact. Both are worthy of some contemplation and reflection.
Who Am I is a lot of things and they are ordinary. I’m first and foremost a human being with lots of good qualities but I’m in no way perfect. A person’s flaws tend to be a great reflection of who they are for real.
I am a product of my past but in no way trapped by it. It’s my hope that I’m able to learn more about who I am in the here and now. People are a product of influence and the times in which they exist. It’s interesting to be on this journey. Everyday is a chance of rebirth.
In reality I’m just trying to live my life where I can be of service to others while having some boundaries. I also hope that in all this that I’m enough just as I am.
