Day 38: In the Moment

If we get our 8 hours of sleep each night, we have approximate 960 waking moments in which we can be present.  Sounds like allot.  I guess it is.  The challenge is looking back over the last day and asking yourself if you have been truly present in each of those moments.  Come on.  You need to be honest with yourself.  Is it possible you had a meal you didn't really take the time to enjoy?  Is it probable you paid north of five bucks for a latte and didn't really taste it?  What about a conversation you had with one person while thinking about the next task on your  "to do" list?  While we would all like to think being present in each moment is natural and easy, these days savouring moments really does take some deliberate effort.

Today's challenge...

Truly be in the moment. Any moment will do. Just be there. Be delilberate and allow yourself a little savour.
