You Are Here

It’s true. It’s always true. You will perpetually be here.

Not there.

Not anywhere else… but here.

 

We each own a “here”. We got it the moment we were conceived. We carry it everywhere we go. When we go there, we take our “here” and when we are there, we’re here. Truth is, we ARE here. It defines us. It’s all we ever have… here. 

 

Get it?

 

Some people don’t treat their “here” very well. They shun their “here”. They ignore their “here” and think of things like

…Future worries

…Past mistakes

…Trinkets, trials and troubles

 

But our “here” needs attention. We must feed it to be successful and fulfilled.  As life coaches, we know it as being “present in the moment”.  A couple examples:

…On the carpet putting legos together with your 8 year old son

…Gazing into your spouse’s eyes across the dinner table

…Lost in the wonder of a phrase that jumped out from scripture

 

Start paying attention to your “here” and you notice something wonderful happens. Life will come alive. Life will deepen. Life will make more sense. Life will fulfill. All because you will find God in your “here”.

 

How do you treat your “here”?
