Living in the ‘Now’

People say that I’m ‘lucky’. I wouldn’t really call it luck. I would just say that I’ve focused on the positive most of the time and that I have surrounded myself with powerful people. The only way I know how to focus on the positive is because I’ve experienced a lot of negative in my life.

Trial and error.

All of the relationships of my past could look like failures to some, but to me they were (in hindsight) great experiences to learn more about myself. We all have patterns that we can choose to look at and learn, or we can choose to blame on somebody else. Our choice. We’ve all chosen both somewhere in our lives until we’ve realized that we were just hurting ourselves.

Why am I writing this today? We have a New Moon Solar Eclipse at 21 degrees Scorpio. From what I’ve heard there will be profound shifts of value and depth in consciousness. I usually take this kind of information with a grain of salt, but over the past few months my values have been changing. I’ve been realizing who I am and honing in on that. Some of them have been hard lessons, some of them very fluid. I’ve watched people in my life go completely bonkers and others more focused. It’s been an interesting process for all of us.

Living in the ‘Now’ has probably been the most challenging thing. I’ve had a tendency to look at my past and this hasn’t served me in the least. My brain automatically reminds me of how I’ve failed in the past, and therefore it sabotages anything new from transpiring. My new experience of myself is focusing on right now. What is going on right now? How do I feel right now? Who am I right now?

Who are you right now?
