Now

Posted on by philipdodson

My writing today is a simple message to myself. Whatever the question is, the answer is always now, as is stay conscious and present in this moment now. Our life is always now. Yet we make the present moment an enemy and see it as a means to an end.

We see now as ordinary and boring as we want to fast forward to the next ‘big’ moment. However, when the so-called ‘big’ moment arrives, of course, it is now and we are already onto what is coming next so we are not even conscious or aware of this big moment.

Life for most of us is a denial of what is and a thought to what is next.

Now is our entire existence and we need to spend as much of our time as possible being present and enjoying our real life, as all things apart from this moment are temporary.

Right now

Life goes by in a blink.

We think it’s too late…it’s all lost.

It’s never too late.

The moment is always now.

We can only ever experience anything now.

Everything that was ever experienced by anyone ever was always now and it always happened because that person took the first step now.

Whatever thing you think about whether inventing fire, the wheel, going to space, curing a disease, making amazing art, writing a book, creating a song…it all was done in the now and it all started with one tiny step by a person who was willing to take a risk, step up and be counted.

We can all start the next experience, it’s never too late, but we can only do it now, not tomorrow.

Whatever you can dream or feel in your soul, you can take the first step towards that right now.
