December 31, 2010



So of course, lots of bloggers are dedicating their December 31 post to 2010; the good, the bad, and the ugly. And they're talking about their hopes, dreams, and resolutions for 2011. These reflections and considerations are all good and stuff, but they divert us away from the present and how we can improve and change in the hear-and-now. I, too, struggle with this idea of grabbing hold of "right now" and forgetting the past and not worrying about the future.

There's a quote that goes something like this: "The past is history, the future is a mystery, but today is a gift. That's why it's called the present."

If I have any '11 resolution, it is to live in the present and no where else. Not even Hawaii. ;)

Please love today. Love December 31, 2010. You only get it once.
