 My motto
Live in the NOW!
Can't do anything about the past and why project your fears into the future.
I have spent my whole life being afraid. I grew up with an extremely cruel mother, who tied me under the bed, beat me every day, wouldn't let me talk to other members of the family and humilated me as much as she could in front of others.
You would think that would've made me strong, but it has taken me into my 50s to live in the NOW. When I feel sick to my stomach or fearful of something, I just remember Eckart Tolle and live in the NOW. Is anything threatening you NOW.
So that is how I live my life--Is there anything threatening you NOW at this moment. Live in the present moment.
Sorry to ramble, but it so simple and has brought me so much peace. And it is what gets me through day-to-day.
