"You create a good future by creating a good present."

                                                                                          ~ Eckhart Tolle      

This quote reminds me of a realization I had when I faced cancer in 2000. No matter how much I cried, tried, wished, raged, and prayed, I could not change any past circumstances that might have led to the growth of the disease. Once I stopped questioning how and why the cancer developed, it dawned on me that there was enormous power in the now. How I responded, chose, and acted in each and every present moment was affecting the quality of the day and shaping the future. Wow!

Listening for wisdom and acting with faith, let's make loving choices today - for the good of this day and for a bright future.  

Truly,
Charlene
