December

Ah December is here. We're in Advent...the season of waiting. More waiting!
Where I am now, accepting I cannot control everything, nothing is ever really perfect, and it is not possible to plan the future. So I am enjoying each day, waiting for life to offer its next surprise as I am sure there are a many more coming!

Buddha said:

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future,
concentrate the mind on the present moment.

And so I am concentrating on the present. Carpe diem, seize the day! Enjoying everything the Christmas Season brings, the time of year when "there's no such thing as strangers when a stranger says hello" as Kermit said in the Muppet's Christmas Carol. It is a happy time of year filled with yummy treats : ) Take the time to enjoy the moment which is the only gift you ever really have. Don't loose it to the past, enjoy it now!
