If you are depressed you are living in the past. If you are anxious you are living in the future. If you are at peace you are living in the present.

My grandfather spent the last years of his life watching TV from his recliner and died at 76. My father spent the last years of his life watching TV from his recliner and died at 79. Both men were so afraid of death that they spent their remaining years hiding from life. Look, we don’t know when our time will be up, but no one dies wishing they spent more time watching TV.

During moments of meditative silence, what do you say to yourself when the loud/critical/doubting voice inside your head conjures negative thoughts or emotions? The experts have one primary go-to phrase and that’s “Let it be.” In other words, when you let something be, it just is. You don’t have to do anything to it or to yourself.

Reflecting a bit about my father today. Instead of feeling sorry for myself about how the last 15 years unfolded, I am more resigned to the acceptance that they happened in the only manner possible. There’s comfort in understanding the past is unchangeable. No use dwelling on it.

Before posting to social media ask yourself if what you’re saying is true, kind, necessary, helpful, and authentic. When you’re about to post ask yourself “is this me?” Is this an accurate reflection of my life and a sincere expression of how you’re feeling right now?
