M. lives this way. taking such good care of the present he’s been given that he does not fear for the future. he is prepared. he blesses his family so much. — k.
That sounds like a truly beautiful way to live.
definitely peaceful. and i’ve also noticed—-frees him from the opinions of others. it is clear to him that he is doing what he should be. i’m hoping by the end of our lives, it will have fully rubbed off on me! 😉
The present is what creates it all. The present is the past. The present is the future. In the present is where it all happen!
Truth!
Neuroscientists are proving that we cannot live anywhere but the past, as everything we think about, requires a comparison with what we’ve already learned and experienced.
Further, they’ve shown that we act before our conscious mind is aware of our decision to act, so apparently, our subconscious is in charge of our actions.
So, to what degree are we truly responsible for our actions? What we are learning about our minds will reshape education and our court/prison system.
An amazing time to be alive.
It really really is.
