All you will ever truly own is NOW… this moment.

Yesterday belongs to the ages. Tomorrow is only today’s promise. NOW is the sum of you, for better or worse… do not waste it.

You can only live in the NOW. Every measure of effort you spend attempting to re-live the past or pre-live the future results in an equal measure of death in the NOW.

There is no living in the past, you can only observe the memory of it, a memory often flawed, often incorrect, albeit often precious.

Memories have great potential to stir appreciation, validate accomplishment, deliver constructive admonishment, and inform our present… but to dwell on memories, is to “miss the meat for the seasoning.”

Never elevate that which is only “seasoning” beyond that which it is meant to season. The spice should never be the entrée. 

Own your NOW, before yesterday does.

NOW is a beautiful thing, it is something for which all of those who have ever lived, no matter how powerful or rich, would trade all their power and wealth to possess.

Your NOW, just as it is, with its perfections and imperfections, with its seasonings of seasons past and its promise of tomorrow’s potential, is the most valuable thing in this universe… it IS your universe. Nothing else exist.

Only NOW has substance and only NOW can cast a shadow… all else is but a forward or backward slanting shadow of NOW.
