Today is the day that I will focus on. When I live in the future I can get anxious and overwhelmed with fears of future failures. When I live in the past I can become dogged by regret, resentment or sadness. But somehow when I stay in the present moment it all feels sort of OK. I am touched by the simple world that surrounds me; I am filled by a spiritual presence that is a part of the moment. When I stay right here and now, I feel held by an invisible force. It feels like enough just to get my cup of tea, look out the window, sit in nature, go grocery shopping or go to a meeting. I can act responsibly today and have faith that today’s sincere and responsible actions and thoughts are my best way of building a better tomorrow. I cannot live in tomorrow or in yesterday, without losing today. And when I lose today, I lose the only soil on which I have to build my future.

My future grows out of my today

I just try to concentrate on concentrating.
