BEHIND

            ~calming tomorrow’s worries

“I am Behind,” you say. Behind what? Behind whom? Do you see your self standing in the shadow of the Great Tomorrow, promising that you will fall short?

Are you Behind in chores? Learning? Financial Security? Acceptance? Purpose? How do you believe that you are Behind?

Consider your history. Have you ever felt Not-Behind? You will find this is a rare and brief occurrence, if it occurs at all. There is no way to be Not-Behind with your crops, not when after the seed is planted, they must have time to grow and nourish. There is no way to be Not-Behind on making tomorrow morning’s bed, for tonight, you will sleep in it.

So, when you believe that you are Behind, how exactly do you report upon your current condition? Have you procrastinated or avoided something that needs attention? Did Fear cause you to turn away from a responsibility, or to refuse an opportunity? To believe perpetually that you are Behind causes you to experience a chronic level of tension and anxiety.

Could you function in a more serene and efficient state if you dedicated each day to addressing what was most important? Can you be satisfied by worthwhile and genuine efforts? Can you surrender when your plans to accomplish a certain inventory falls short?

Be reasonable. Be direct. Be honest. Measure your tasks and accomplishments by standards that are real and pertinent. You will worry less about Tomorrow’s appointments, if today you labor with love and ease. You will calm Tomorrow’s worries and each day, celebrate your aliveness by living in the moment rather than just beyond.

Blessed Be This Day
