Quote of the day: Rumi

“This moment is all there is”

___Rumi

🌼Don’t you find this concept scary? The right and right now is all that you have. As much as your plans for the future matter, they don’t matter as much as this moment right now.

If you are spending this moment trapped in past events, you can’t appreciate who and and what is in your life right now.

If you are completely caught up in your future, you can’t appreciate who and what is in your life right now.

The reality is that if you don’t appreciate this moment then you are letting life pass you by.

In this moment is love, beauty, peace, joy and, sometimes, the answers you seek, or solutions to problems you have been experiencing. In this moment. Here and Now.

This moment is all there is.🌼

Quote of the day: Seneca

Thankful Tuesday Quote:

“True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied with what we have, which is sufficient, for he that is so wants nothing”

Seneca

🌼I have had a terrible habit of overthinking things. Trying to figure out what is unseen and how it will affect my future. I used to drive myself crazy. I still find myself doing it from time to time. What a way to be ungrateful for what is.

To acknowledge and appreciate that which I already have, and those people who’s love and support I never have to question, is how I am learning to cultivate more inner peace. Those that need to join me on my path will arrive and stay and those that don’t will move on peacefully. It’s their choice as well. I am finding that gratitude is like an elixir. The more I practice it, the richer my life becomes.🌼

Quote of the day: Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Don’t be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Inspired by some of the life stories of the Boks that made that fantastic win happen yesterday. Their past has not defined them. They have dreamt big, not only for themselves but for the rest of the country as well and they have succeeded in achieving that dream.

Well played Bokke! Thank you for raising the energy of this country again and giving us hope. Thank you for making us world champions again and giving us the space and a reason to dream again. We had forgotten what we are capable of. Well played! 👏🏼👏🏼🙌
