The Beauty of Now

"Happiness is the only good. The time to be happy is now. The place to be happy is here. The way to be happy is to make others so. " Robert Green Ingersoll

Wishers do a lot of thinking into the future.

  We do a lot of Dorothy heel clicking & determination style hoping.

Lots of hold your breath kinda dreamin' while we're watching sunsets & falling stars.

It's that ALL fingers crossed belief that it will all turn out the way we plan.

I'm beginning to wonder if all that wishing has a way of stealing away the effervescent lucidity of the present.

D A Y S    H A P P E N

They are alive in movement, energy, purpose & our very breath..
Whether they look the way we wish them to or not

So Today I Vow
I vow to wish less & live more.

I  Vow to find all the beauty of Now
RIGHT
NOW
because,

every breath is precious
 & every day is another chance.

To all those directly affected by the horrific & senseless violence in Boston, may love light the way to healing.
