The Art of Care

Time is an issue that I battle with on a constant basis. There are the events of the past, and those events have affected our lives in the present through their reverberation through history, our rememberance of past events. Then the events of the future, yet to happen, yet easily worried about by the human mind. Many people are too anxious to experience the future and make it the past, yet always holding on for the future even as it arrives as the present.

I usually realte with alot of the things Chris says, and his use of Ouspensky is very on point. humans are so scattered, and uncentered. There are so many people I know that go around day to day still angry from events that happened days ago, dwelling in the past. And others I know are afraid to act on their present feelings because they are afraid of what it will bring in the future.

Life is a balance and I agree that this balance comes from what we are experienceing in the now. The present is always giving us new information, but our Beings sometimes aren't enough in tune with the present to perceive them fully.
