It’s not fully empty or fully full but there is something. It’s exactly what you need for the moment. You need not thirst – stand still and take a sip of your NOW – right NOW. You may find it surprisingly refreshing. It quenches and confirms the desire to keep moving.

Discovering the newness of our now shifts our thinking to be grateful for the fact that we are still alive. Stop in your tracks now and see the beauty around you; see a beautiful flower that we’ve past every day without noticing because your thoughts were on yesterday or tomorrows concerns.
