The challenging moments

When we feel good, it’s easy to keep going. When we are in a peaceful environment, it’s easier to remain calm. When we are not under pressure, it’s more straightforward to be relaxed.

It’s the challenging moments in life that are harder to just be and to not react. To remain calm and at peace in the face of adversity or danger that show our true consciousness and connectedness to our true essence.

Peace is in an inside job and in whatever exterior circumstances it’s our willingness to stay within our soul and away from our thoughts, reactions and ego that maintain our calm and acceptance.

Problems and solutions

If we live in the now, as in this present conscious moment, then we can only have solutions to situations that arise right now. That’s real and can be dealt with or not, right now, and is free from suffering or anxiety and fear.

If we live in our mind and its endless repeating thought and projections into the unknown future that doesn’t exist outside our head, then we have a life filled with problems and suffering from the fear of what might happen. It’s out of our control and cannot be dealt with, it’s pure psychological fear.

Solutions happen now and are real, problems occur in the future and are generated in our mind. It’s a simple choice we can all make, now.
