The Now

"You will master the now
when you do not want
to leave it. "

When you find yourself impatient, it means you don't like where you are right not. Looking to the future will not make you feel patient. If you're not in this moment, you're missing your life.

The key to being in "the now" is learning to live in your spirit. Your spirit does not know how to be impatient because it lives in non-linear space without time. Your spirit does not know how to be any other place other than where it is. All your spirit knows is how to experience life.

Space in your mind, otherwise known as the now, offers the luxury of being present and paying attention because you're not pushed. The now of your spirit can't be pushed; the future does not exist yet. When you live from your spirit you accept life uninterrupted. It's easy to pay attention because you're interested in what you're doing. Remember, the pathway to enlightenment is just another name for a self-interest study.

When you allow the experience of life to enter the surface of your mind, flow through the greater Kelee and into the lesser Kelee, you'll feel like you're living like never before. When you feel happy in your mind, you do not need to be someplace else and being in the now is achieved. Have you ever noticed, you never seem to hurry from a place you like to be?

Life's speed limit is being comfortable with the now. As if you can really live anyplace else.

You cannot be comfortable outside, until you're comfortable inside the space of your spirit.
