Splash du Jour: Tuesday

Why does the mind habitually deny or resist the Now? Because it cannot function and remain in control without time, which is past and future, so it perceives the timeless Now as threatening. Time and mind are in fact inseparable.
-- Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now --


Have a great Tuesday!

Time and mind are inseparable.....or ARE THEY? My current situation has brought me to the appreciation of NOW! It's all we truly have. Celebrate/Enjoy NOW! You can separate your programmed mind and be in touch with.................... It's all good. CARPE DIEM! The End.

You say your "current situation" has brought you the appreciation of now and maybe that's it; we need a trigger in order to truly force/discipline ourselves to live in the NOW.

Dear C:
Most experiences with psychotherapy are instigated by a crisis experience.
The trigger.
I needed it, myself, and am ever so grateful, in retrospect.
