This Is How It Is Right Now

04/29/2020 by John 1 Comment

I’m having coffee in bed — one of my favorite things. Bird song is coming through the window. A candle is burning on the dresser across the room, throwing shadows on the wall. I am relaxed and at peace.

This is how it is right now.

I did a meditation this morning with this quote as the focus. This is how it is right now. This is how it is. Right now.

In turbulent times, this simple phrase is a source of comfort. It reminds me that whatever chaos is happening within or without will pass. In times of joy, it is a reminder to appreciate what is, but not cling to it, for it too will pass.

This is how it is right now.
