To live in the past is to recreate guilt
and mostly pain
to live in the future is to create fear and uncertainty
so try to live in the NOW ! savor the moment of NOW! Living ( Life) is NOW!
Enjoy your senses NOW !
(Imagine that you are in a sweet scented garden amidst the various coloured flowers with birds flying and chirping around you and you can hear the soft flowing of a water fountain)
LOOK at the beauty of Nature around you Then
LISTEN to the fountain water flowing softly on and on
Then
SMELL the sweet fragrance of the flowers
Then!
FEEL the soft breeze caressing your body
Then!
TASTE the sweet honeycomb or glass of wine
Then
Relax and enjoy the moment NOW !

That works beautifully Michael, unless you are on the battlefield of death. Bill Murray
Hey, this is a great relaxation technique after a harsh day at the office. I had one--the construction company I work for poured a basement in the wrong spot and it now has to be torn out, the hole filled in, redug and repoured. NOT a fun day at the office. I read poetry to help relax--thanks for this one.
These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
Note: Since my husband's cancer surgery 4/25/05, this book content has been integrated into the public speaking content for audiences interested in a sassy approach to personal and/or community awareness events. Another chapbook on intimate love poet
