For at
least the past few weeks, I have felt like I land on a Wednesday and wonder
“Where did the week go?” Further, it
would be mid-morning and I was already looking forward to the evening. With this attitude, a month would quickly
pass by. I say all this from experience,
and I wonder if anyone reading this over-anticipates as well?
I’m
beginning to retrain my mind to live in the present moment, and with
gratitude. I remember days in the
monastery where I would pray, “Thank You Jesus, because it’s Monday!” So I wish to make this my resolution. There are exciting things coming up, but I
will not let it keep me from focusing on the present things I am doing right
now, in this room, in front of my computer.
A whole nother perspective is discovered this way, whether the day is anticipated
or not. And that is also how I can let God into these times.
