When That Moment Comes

"Each day in life is given to you to redeem yourself. Each moment. Who knows when that moment will come when you can
listen to the truth and be the truth?" Yogi Bhajan

Ever wonder why it's easier to see the signs afterwards? We get so caught up in the emotional, commotional aura around what we are experiencing, that we forget to see what's going on. And then, one day, we look back, hand on our head, and think, "how could I not have seen that?"

Life gives us so many opportunities, and then it's up to us to get it. Every day is an opportunity for truth. Every experience is clearly explaining the way things are, and yet we are busy blaming the weather, or the traffic, or our spouse, or whatever we can find that offers a small escape from taking personal responsibility for the moment.

And thank goodness life is relentless. If we don't get the message, it will be so kind and so patient as to present it to us again and again and again until we do! Because - who does know when we will be willing to listen, and then redeem ourselves by learning to be Who We Really Are.

Responsibility.
Presence.
Taking positive Action.
Practicing Gratitude.

These are what prepare you for when that moment comes.

Blessings.
