Comments on: That is MY Seat! http://goldenzen.wordpress.com/2008/04/25/that-is-my-seat/ Most lives are spent waiting. Waiting for dreams to manifest, for trouble to end, and for life to be happy. Golden Zen reflects on the brillance of the NOW and the winks we receive from our Source to remind us we possess it all. Golden Zen is practical and mystical, instructive and reflective. You are my invited guest.

My point said in such a clear way. The place of gratitude opens the door for such delight in every moment. Barbara: And when you don't get the parking space...all is good. :-) Liara, EXACTLY.

If I get the one closest to the door, I call that "rock star" parking, but if it's one or two in, than it's "princess" parking. Those that ride with me always say, "gosh, you're so lucky". I just smile. :) Hi Harmony,

To focus on what you have rather than on what you don't, is the first step to reinforcing gratitude. If you choose to appreciate having access to the bus so you don't have to walk, then you have a reason to smile come what may.

Did for me, anyway. I work at home so public transportation isn't even an option for me, although I suppose I could ride around town with my laptop just for the heck of it (not a bad idea actually).

I love the swaying to and fro. It reminds me of being on a boat out on the lake, and there's not much I love more than that. Besides, it's exercise! Tell me you don't have sore muscles after a one hour standing ride into the city. Core exercises are all the rage now aren't they? :) So let's see.. here and NOW. NOW I am enjoying being in Saturday clothes. NOW I can hear Gilly gnawing on a bone in the other room. NOW there is a dove cooing randomly in the back yard. NOW I am going to get another cup of coffee and catch up on the rest of my blogroll. Thank you for always reminding me about NOW. :) Nicole Harmony,

You could "think" me right out of town. :-) Great to see you. @Friar - You are already well on your way, you see yourself. Most don't. Please do come back, you are most welcome . @goatman- OH YES. You are talking my language. Let's breathe and have a wonderful moment right now! Thank you to all! It is time to take my golden girl into the sunshine and forget about anything but Friday afternoon.

Your post is a wonderful example of living in the moment; and your description of life as mostly waiting was right on with me also. I found that in the past we were waiting to get through college, waiting to get through the military experience, waiting to get to the next job and waiting to move to the next place, then we would begin actual living. It seemed endless. And the whole time we could have been enjoying the NOW. But wisdom comes with experience and now we wait no longer, but enjoy the present. Takes a lifetime, or maybe several I guess, to learn the technique. The best to you. Hi,
