Let's keep it simple today.
We spend so much of our lives in our imagined future,
Planning for,
Hoping for,
Longing for,
Worrying about,
Being terrified of tomorrow,
Next month,
Next week,
And next year.
And it's interesting because we spend so much of our time in our imagined future but we know from experience that very little of what we think will happen,
What we prophesize will happen,
Actually comes to pass in that way.
We might have some influence but we are not in control and that's why it's so nice to regularly practice presence,
To regularly bring ourselves back to the here and now.
And today we have a really beautiful composition called Grace of a Butterfly to help us do that.
So I'd encourage you to make yourselves comfortable and enjoy the music.
And when you notice your mind has wandered,
As it will,
As it does,
Allowing the music to bring you back to this moment.
And may you give yourself grace always.
May you know that you can always begin again in practice and in life.
And may you know that you are loved.
Thank you,
As always,
For practicing with me today.
Thank you for your continued generosity and your support.
And thank you so much to Blossom Violet,
Also a teacher here on Insight Timer,
For allowing me to use this beautiful,
Beautiful composition,
Grace of a Butterfly.
You
