here and now

Anniversaries of passings, birthdays and the like oft turn out to be days of pain for those who no longer feel the presence of loved ones. We assure you they are more present than ever at those times. We are not telling you to stay away from your memories. We only wish to remind you that living in the past can bring pain, just as living in the future often results in fear. Where do you find peace? In the present. As you focus on love here and now, you realize that all there is is love in the true presence of being. You find true presence in the silence and stillness, where past and future, subject and object merge. Go there on those special days and every day to enjoy Presence, merging with the One to emerge in a state of Wholeness.
