I was filling out a questionnaire this morning, and one of the questions was, Where are you living presently? Now I know the intent of that question, but there’s a deeper, more esoteric, meaning to that question. Am I living presently? Do I live in the present moment?
When I say it is my goal to live in the present moment, then I am not living in the here and now. Having a goal means I am looking into the future, hoping that someday I achieve the goal of living in the now.
Living presently is a release of reliving the past or fretting about the future. It is allowing my focus to land on the feel of my fingers touching the keys of the keyboard or the sounds and sights around me right now. It is living with a calm mind and a peaceful heart.
