Bringing it Back to the Present

My mind has been racing lately with all sorts of thoughts. It’s been fun and it makes me feel like I’m being productive. However, just now I realized that all of those thoughts related to either the past or the future. I haven’t been living in the present.

It’s easy to think I am in the present because most of my thoughts are about what I’m feeling in the moment, but the only reason those feelings are in existence is because of the thoughts I’m having about the past or the future. For today I’m going to keep my mind (and my thoughts) in the same location as my feet. My feet can’t be in the past or future, so my mind shouldn’t be there either—especially since god can’t be anywhere but the present.
