Give up waiting as a state of mind. When you catch yourself slipping into waiting...snap out of it. Come into the present moment. Just be and enjoy being.

Whenever anything negative happens to you, there is a deep lesson concealed within it, although you may not see it at the time

The stream of thinking has enormous momentum that can easily drag you along with it. Every thought pretends that it matters so much.

Fear arises through identification with form, whether it be a material possession, a physical body, a social role, a self-image, a thought, or an emotion. It arises through unawareness of the formless inner dimension of consciousness or spirit, which is the essence of who you are. You are trapped in object consciousness, unaware of the dimension of inner space which alone is true freedom.

Can you look without the voice in your head commenting, drawing conclusions, comparing, or trying to figure something out?

You simply have to surrender to the present moment. Be alert. Watch something in a state of alertness. Always, continuously, bring that into everyday life, not spirituality here and getting on with your life there.

If you are not living this moment, you are not really living.
