In the Midst of All the Chaos There is Something to Smile About

The year 2020 has been a doozie!  Guess what?  We are only half way through it.  It's almost scary in a way to think about tomorrow especially when you read about all that's going on.  Therefore, I practice living in the present.  I practice loving every minute of the present.  Of course there are times I miss the mark but I bring myself back.  Of course there are times I didn't even do that.  When I was younger I spent my days and nights dreaming about the future, always wanting something better.  As a person almost middle age, I caught myself reflecting on yester-years, "the old days" way too much.  That's when my practice of living in the present began.  I was like, "Girl, you are doing way too much." Now each day I tell myself if I do not want to repeat old situations, then stop reflecting on "the old days".  Surely, I am not telling anyone (to include myself) not to reflect, especially when it comes to really really good times
