"The Future takes care of it-self" goes a popular saying, which is pronounced in times when worries and doubts of what the future might hold are becoming too over-whelming, in the hope of thus gaining a little peace of mind. Indeed, the future does take care of it-self, in fact there is no other possible option for it to be. Yet unless you learn to live in the awareness of the present the "future" will never actually come to pass. To be living fully conscious in the here-now teaches you to realize that both past and future are only projections of you mind and that the present moment is all that you can ever possess. Yet by clinging to memories of the past and losing your-self in phantasies of what the future might bring, you are missing even that. And maybe at the end of your life you will look back in regret of all the time wasted with vain dreaming and worrying. The only moments remaining imprinted within your consciousness wil bee those in which you experienced happiness and sorrow greater than your-self. For those two are the opposing sides of Love. The conditionless and compassionate Love of Divine origin, which rejoices in life, yet because it is all-knowing, simultaneously grieves in the knowledge that its death is inevitable. Life and Death being irrevocably tied together, like day and night, light and darkness.
Liberating your-self from the idea that you are limited to your body, feelings and Mind only, time ceases to matter in the old way and makes way for the realization of your actual immortality.
