This Week's Reflection

 

Not only are we all at sea when we're being abused by our over-thinking normal crazy mind, we are drowning... drowning in our own thoughts.

 

And that's simply not good enough now. And I mean now - this now, any now, every now.

 

If you're buried in your own head now, doing routine stuff, thinking that, because it's routine, this now doesn't really matter, how are you going to be alert to what's happening in a now that really does matters? And, stuck in thought, how would you know the difference anyway?

 

These questions mean that, in actual fact, we should be questioning ourselves all the time, interrogating our state of mind, ensuring that we're alert, that we're aware even if that is only to be aware that we're not fully aware... awareness in and of itself.

 

If you're not awake now, how is there even a remote chance that you'll be awake at the crucial moment? The crucial moment could slap you across the face and you'd miss it!

 

All this leads to one inevitable conclusion: regardless of what this here and now offers or asks of us, this here and now matters. In fact, because we live our lives in heres and nows, this here and now is the only here and now that matters for now.

 

Obvious, isn't it!
