From what the author states don't worry about. lol Some of the stuff I do agree with, but some of it was far fetched.  |
I think that it is easy to misinterpret when people suggest living in the present moment. We have never done it (we live always in our thoughts except childhood) so we do not know what it would be like in the present moment. In fact, it is not as if you don't have to keep up with your responsibilities in the present moment. You actually concentrate on them even better because you are not letting invading, worrying thoughts from the past and future come in and mess up your concentration. There really is no sense in worrying anyhow, because that does not change what IS. and what IS is always in the present moment. it is all that exists, so if you are getting sued, fully concentrate on getting sued when you have to deal with the legal issues, but when you are doing other things concentrate on those things too and forget about the past, haha. And remember to take a few moments for your self each day and just feel your body to get in the present moment, it feels great. you are a child of the universe, there is no need to worry.
