Good morning. ️It is a beautiful, sunny day today. Definitely something to be grateful for. Somehow we often forget how special this is until winter when we really miss the warmth of summer. The idea of present connectedness has us squarely in the present, not wishing for past or future—just taking in the present without judgment. We can be accepting of the present-rain or shine. We can also notice our own preferences. So all things being equal, when I take in a day like today, I’m energized and grateful…being present focused allows us to experience joy or contentment when something is pleasant to us and to be calm when it is not, because we are aware rain or unpleasantness will pass.
Enjoy this present focused practice today!
