Your whole life is now.

"When ______ happens, that will be my real life. That's when I'll be happy." I caught my thoughts this morning as I started my prayer session.

I was devaluing this day, this time in my life, this moment sitting in my bedroom chair next to an unmade bed below dusty blinds, while outside the earth rumbled with the sounds of the sprinkler starting up.

And I realized, this moment is not only all I have, it's my whole life.

"If I can't recognize, accept, love and experience ALL of my life right now, I never will."
