Our minds can distract us from being fully present and appreciating the moment we’re in. However, each second we worry or bemoan what is, we lose. We load our consciousness with dissatisfaction and miss the beauty, glory, grace and perfection that always surrounds us. Gratitude is the shortcut that gets us into harmony with this moment. We don’t need to pretend there isn’t unpleasantness, we just need to focus on what is pleasant to balance ourselves, and make sure our awareness isn’t dominated by negativity so much that we miss life in the only time it can really happen…
