Current(s).

If there was one central “theme word” of my life that I had to choose, it would be “Presence”.

I feel as if it is a recurring theme in a lot of my writing and speaking, too.

I am constantly making a concerted effort to live in the moment – to take in and experience life as it happens.

I still plan, I still reflect, but I do it all in the effort of maintaining presence.

So, as this moment is current, I think not only about this moment but how life’s moments flow through a day…

Like a current.

When I am able to maintain presence in a day, everything flows well and the current of the day moves along swimmingly.

However, when I am getting stuck on past troubles or future uncertainties, I find that I am fighting the current.

I am fighting the day as it flows along, trying to go against the stream and fight my way to something that isn’t present.

I felt that this analogy really put me in a place to let life continue to flow with me, not against me.

We don’t want to make things difficult, so let’s make things present.

Let’s be current in the current.
