I live in California, where there's a lot of driving entailed. I'm usually going somewhere to be on time to meet someone so I'm necessarily engaged in time. And yet, how can I in that moment of driving my car, be aware of that which is not going anywhere?

We have to be on time every day for one thing or another, so how can we be on time and yet not in time at the same time?

To keep faith with life is to experience that everything- everything that comes to us whatever it is- has its place in the puzzle of our existence.

The capacity to become aware of the givens of our existence - such as change - and to actually welcome those as just part of our human experience releases the struggle.

When you die, God and the Angels will hold you accountable for all the pleasures you were allowed in life that you denied yourself.

Everything constantly changes.

I bring my attention to my hands on the steering wheel and notice how the chatter in my mind begins to fall away as my breathing slows. I'm awake and alive, simply driving the car going where I need to go, on time and in time. A still point of the turning world. With that awareness, I bring my attention into my body, and the body is the doorway to the timeless, because the body is always where we are and always in the present moment.
