Expectations

This subject was touched on several times in the course of writing these posts. Why? The time you are in is what you should be living. It is here and now. It is what will make your past.
The future will look at what you are doing now and not what the future moment will be. It has not yet happened. Those in the future would look at you and say "They were a dreamer but they did nothing with the time they had. They only dreamed." The world runs on dates, times, schedules and such but you may not live to see them. The past is the record of your life. The future is the reading of who you were in that life. Our footprints in the sand will be washed away leaving nothing to show we passed that way.

From the book that never was;
********************************************

      As I live each second of my life, as it becomes a part of right now, I experience change. To plan for my change is absurd since, at any point, I am no longer living each second as it is given to me.

********************************************

      I cannot learn until I have lived. I do not learn as I live but because I have lived. How my step forward lands tells me how I have lived.

********************************************

 I do not choose to memorize what I write. It is more refreshing to read it from time to time so that it might teach me anew.

********************************************

 The life of all of my youth and all that is gone into the past has become the vision of the  present wisdom for a new, more loving, bountiful tomorrow.

********************************************

Whenever I enter into meditation I enter into a place of peace and the aloneness of solitude. Here no others may come or enter. It is a personal place in my heart, mind and soul to which the doors are tightly closed. Deep within the byways of the known and unknown I  wander. Truth is found in the clutter of a life lived to the day's end.

 *******************************************

I hope you find inspiration or at least a modicum of truth in these offerings. 

Another of the Moontear images. (there are only a few left so bear with me for a few more weeks.)

The Copic colors used are;



That is it for this week. May the good Lord bless you and keep you safe. Remember to "Always Love The Details."

  1. Some times it's difficult to live in the moment but I keep trying to focus and leave behind the real fears we face in today's world. Tomorrow is never promised, so I always try to keep that in mind as life always moves forward. You always amaze me with your coloring skills and I would be framing all of these beautiful images you bring to life with your coloring of them. Beautiful!

  2. you know when reading all of this the first verse that came to my mind was Matthew 6:34 is “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
    Beautiful coloring!

  3. We miss out on so much when we dwell too long on our past or daydream about the future. Here and now, may we celebrate each God-given moment.
    Blessings, Jim!

  6. A very good ideas with a very good reflections. Yes, is important all that you said in the article. And is important the reflexiones about Life, because all we are walking daily in the Life, and we can give the best direction to our own steps if we reflexionate and we want. The best for me, is to be a good person, for one self and for others. Have a very nice day.
