Now

There is nothing you need right now in order to be fulfilled, complete, and happy.

Your mind will disagree: "I need to finish this stupid project. I need to pay my bills. I need to have free time. I need to be with the girl of my dreams. I need to become successful. I need to be far away from here. I need to be free from my pain. I need to get home, sit back in my comfy chair and turn on the television. I need to move out of my parents house and find my own place. I need to be respected. I need the worrying to end...."

How can you realize that there is nothing you need changed or need to happen in the future in order to be fulfilled?

Place your attention in your body. Take a few deep breaths into your stomach. Let your stomach rise and fall with each breath. If there is tension or anxiety notice it and cherish it. It will help bring your attention away from your mind. While your thoughts are always moving, your body is always in the present moment. All you seek is right here now.

What is it like to let go, to drop your shoulders, to surrender to the moment? It feels as if a great burden has lifted. You are beginning to recognize a part of yourself that you had never known before. Previously, you thought you were just your mind created story. Now, you are touching the eternal within.
