This Moment in Time




The human construct of time is the most bizarre thing. It is always running away from us. It never slows down and we are unable to cause it to stop.

The only time we have any influence over is this present moment. It is the confluence or meeting point of all our journeys, experiences, learnings, good or bad up until this present moment. 

Once you have spent time it elusively vaporises into thin air. You cannot beg, trade or buy it back. It literally disappears leaving a shadow of its former self, a shadow that can menace and threaten the present moment with its dark gloom and anguished negativity.

I hear people saying all the time that it is too late to make right their past, or make the necessary changes going forward.

I want to encourage you. There is no time like NOW. This moment is the manifestation of every single past thought, word or deed, and every single event that you have endured. The only place you can correct an imbalance is in the present moment. This moment is all you have.

All of time exists in this present moment. So, make it right, RIGHT NOW.

Don’t delay for another second setting straight a negative past memory with your intentions.

Imagine you are a river. You are in the flow. There is no stopping or getting out of the river. You are constantly and ceaselessly moving. If you find yourself inland there is no way you can go back to the mountain top where you had your Earthly beginnings. Actually who says that was the beginning? Go further back. You rained down from a cloud. You can’t go back there either can you? Going further back, you evaporated from the river or ocean into the clouds. You can’t turn back the clock, but if you relax you will see that it is coming around again. You will flow into the sea. You will evaporate once again and rain down on Earth and so the cycle will repeat into perpetuity.

Can you see? What you were, are and will be again is infinite. There is no beginning and there is no end. Whatever pollutants are floating in your midst, deal with them and throw them out. The debris that became entangled on the banks way back, upstream, bear no relevance to your well-being right now. You passed them days, years perhaps eons ago. Deal with what is relevant in your life right now.

It is never too late to say you are sorry. You can only apologise for something in hind sight after you realise the consequences of your actions. It is never too late, even if the person you wish to apologise to is deceased. Time is not linear. It exists on all levels concurrently. 

When you forgive it is to free yourself from your suffering. You don’t need to wait another second to do that. You can do it right now. All you need do is detach yourself from the memories of the wreckage you left upstream and be your best in this moment.

You are as free as the river. You just don’t see it. It is only the construct of the mind that tells you otherwise. You are not your mind. You are not a slave to your mind’s rantings and memories. You are the essence that endures no matter what path is being followed. 

You are the river, the ocean, water vapour, rain, hail and snow. You are the sum total of all your life experiences. 

Don't judge your experience as good or bad or right or wrong. Have peace in the realisation that wherever and whatever you are in at this moment is not permanent. You’ll be transforming and coming around again.

Have a beautiful week enjoying and savouring this moment in time.

love from my heart
