Living in today

[caressa]

Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is the noble art of leaving things undone. The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of non-essentials."

-- Lin Yutang

This quote reminded me of the number of times I left things undone and put my life on hold waiting for my son to show up, do this or that, and inevitable he was a no-show or too drunk or stoned to do anything.

The non-essentials in my life are worry, fear, and all those anxious feelings I allow to run my life.

Each day is what I make it. Just for today, I choose to make healthy choices.

So many things were 'Do or Die' and it is nice to have permission to let things go. Like the slogan, "How important is it?" My sobriety (soundness of mind) must come first. Without me, I have nothing.

SEE IT & BELIEVE IT
Instead of searching for what you want externally, concentrate on developing mental pictures of your desires. Surround these images with feelings of security, gratitude, and faith; and know that what you’ve been looking for is on its way to you right now." Doreen Virtue Quotes

Why wait for tomorrow, when it can be done in today?

A good question, maybe I will be able to get some laundry done today.
