Being a Mindfulness practitioner…, and before I open with the quote of this day, I invite you to join me in a mindfulness affirmation… Ready…. First…, take a deep breath with me….

SEASON: 2?EPISODE: 22 ,Published April, 20, 2022

You have heard today’s quote before. But here I add another perspective.

?Today's quote is titled: LIVE NOW

"The quality of the life you now live…, as you pursue your goal…, should nonetheless be meaningful and satisfying. Think about it this way…. The Thrill lives in the Hunt… but dies with the Kill…. The Thrill…, is in making the most of your life now…. The Hunt…, is the experience of pursuing a worthy goal…, and the Kill…, is the goal achieved and the reset of a new one".

The idea here is to not disregard all other facets of your life. This is something you may want to seriously consider when you commit to the pursuit of a goal…, and it may be more important than anything else.

?You will still be living your entire Life as you go on about pursuing your goals, and to do so mindful of “Being” in the present…, when leaving anything out…, is impossible. The present reality of your life…, and mine for that matter…, is that it is always whole…, in the Now.

?It should be vital to you…, that the quality of life you live as you pursue your goal…, be nonetheless meaningful and satisfying…. It may as well be. It is all part of your journey…, a journey that begins as it ends, and until you run out of Life…, your whole Life.

?I believe Life is a journey mostly fueled by emotional experiences that…, as best I can…, I try to regulate through thoughts and perceptions. I also believe that life’s pursuits, however sophisticated or simple…, are temporary episodes…, mini-series if you will…, experienced during the Journey that is my entire Life.

?Life…, being mostly an emotional experience…, it is up to us to steer our thoughts toward…, not only making our journey meaningful and satisfying…, but it should also be lived with purpose and passion.

Do you know how long is a lifetime?

A quote titled: A CONSTANT

"Time itself is not the issue. It is our thoughts, understanding, anxieties, and acceptance of Time as being a constant in our lives…, and of Life as being a finite experience lasting but an Instant".?

As humans, we are designed with the ability to think, and as we are…, with the inability to know the future, and I believe…, this is for the good of Humanity. I certainly am thankful to God that I cannot know my future. If I could, I believe it would devalue the present Moment…, the only moment there is…, the moment in Time I live my life…, not just some of it…, not most of it…, but all of it…, all the time.

We already do a lot of “Thought Surfing,” the kind of “Flash Thinking” that only results in many missed moments…, moments when our ability to appreciate the Present, is missed.

But that’s not all…, because to miss the moment is to miss your entire Mindful Life for the duration of that moment.

Think about it: We are moving so fast…, constantly distracted and “Being” oblivious to the many and costly missed moments in any given day…. Imagine how many Lifetimes that could amount to…. It is a “loss of living” expense we do not have to incur every time…. It is a loss of living expense we can never…, and I mean never…, recover.

It is why the Present is so precious. It is all the Time we have; it is all the Time there is. So, savor the moment more often than you do now. There is always Time for another sip of life: Cheers!!

Tune in next time for the quote of the day…. It may be that one quote you are searching for…. That quote that ignites your passion and gears you up for achievement…, or…, it may be the quote that…, as you journey through life…, illuminates your path…, brings you peace…, love…, and happiness.
