It's not about where I'm going
or even the places I've been
It is the right here - right now
that is all-essential

Looking back is only good for
learning from and being thankful for
Gazing forward only helps to remind
that each future point in time
will have been influenced 
by how this moment is lived

Spending too much time dwelling on
the “then”
keeps us from indwelling
the “now”
Poets, sages and great leaders of faith
have taught this at different times
using similar words

It's not about where I'm going
or even the places I've been
It is the right here - right now
that is all
