I've been thinking about my seemingly constant longing for what I don't have. I struggle to live in the moment I am in; thinking that things could be, and should be, so much better. Where is the line between wanting to do better, to be better and to wanting to have better? And even this begs the question, why must I always be better? Why can't I just be?
I am trying to quiet my mind; trying to hear God rather than to keep filling my mind with more and more and more information about what I should do, be, and have. Live now, not live for later.
However, this discipline is escaping me despite my best intentions.
I think this will be a longer process than I originally thought. Probably will be a day by day reminding, to put down the information, the opinions, and to pick up the quiet.
