Presence vs Control

Being in the moment forces you to release control.  Maybe this is why we often shift our mind to what happened last time and what might happen this time.  We like control but it’s a distraction from what is real.

A mindshift to the past or future allows us to regain control.  We decide what pictures we paint of the future or what we revisit in the past.  We control the stories we weave.  Trying to be in control in this context causes us to miss so much beauty and peace.  

The present requires us to set aside everything and absorb what is currently happening.  

All the sensations…All the emotions…

Take a deep breath and release control because the only thing that is real is right now.  

Control is a fairytale.  

God has it.  

You don’t.
