All day, every day, we are receiving information. This is the payoff to present moment awareness. Nature is letting us in on the secret. And the secret is, 'there are no secrets.' Nature does not speak in code. It wants us to know.
We are all individual expressions of nature itself. Nature wants nothing of us but for us to evolve. Hence, nature is giving us cues, continually, as to the direction of evolution. All we need do is to pay attention and allow ourselves to be led.
In each moment we have the choice of falling into speculation and trying to figure things out, stay safe, get what we need, keep from losing what we have; or being in present moment awareness. Being here. Feeling our oneness with nature and taking in the information that oneness gives us.
Today I will stay out of speculation. When I find myself falling into speculation, I simply will choose to be present. And again. And again.
