Fairy Reminder


Staying in the Present Moment

Often, one of our biggest questions is "What's going to happen?" We may ask this about our relationships, our career and our life. It is easy to tangle us up in worrisome thoughts.

Worrying about what's going to happen blocks us from functioning effectively today. It keeps us from doing our best now. It blocks us from learning and mastering today's lessons. Staying in the now, doing our best, and participating fully today are all we need to do to assure ourselves that what's going to happen tomorrow will be for the best.

Worrying about what's going to happen is a negative contribution to our future. Living in the here and now is ultimately the best thing we can do, not only for today, but also for tomorrow. It helps our relationships, our career and our life.

Does this mean I can't get excited about going to New Mexico to get my motorcycle and do some riding?
Okay, I won't think about it again until I get there. NOT!

Just joking. This IS a great message and as soon as I realized I really don't know the future and can't do anything about the past, I started to live a much better life.
Thanks Mel and Fairies.

I avoid what-ifs whenever possible. Like they say it's no good worrying about what might not happen.

Okay, this one of those fairy reminders that needs to be printed out and read every single day as one of the most important reminders of all time.

Living in the moment.

"Staying in the now, doing our best, and participating fully today are all we need to do to assure ourselves that what's going to happen tomorrow will be for the best."

Yup...for the best!

Thanks sharing, dear lady, because one cannot be reminded of this enough.
