Attending to every moment
Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night feeling that I haven’t accomplished anything in my life. Actually, I think I’ve accomplished quite a bit– it’s hard not to, considering that I work 12 to 14 hours a day.
All of us have had our shares of successes and failures in life. Still, we sometimes awaken to despair and even panic that so many of your years have managed to slip away virtually unnoticed. We may blame our hectic lifestyles and the demands of work and family.
The truth is, if we don’t dwell in every tiny moment that makes up our reality, our whole lives will have passed uneventfully. Every moment in our lives is immensely sacred in its own right. To awaken to the present moment is to experience the sanctity of being alive.
We may consider getting married and giving birth to a child as exceptionally significant moments in our lives. In fact, they are. However, if we give value to only a handful of memorable moments in our lives, the countless other moments that make up our existence will have seemed pointless.
If birthdays, anniversaries, travels to exotic destinations, and other important events in our lives can have so much meaning for us, then why not the present moment? The present moment is the only moment in which we are truly alive. This is not to say that we should not celebrate our birthdays, graduations, anniversaries, and other major milestones in our lives. It’s just that every moment has an intrinsic value in itself.
Attention is what gives meaning and significance to everything. By attending to every moment in our lives with great care and diligence, we render it as special as our wedding or birthday.
