stop thinking in the future

my brother told me this. because some one else told him this.

:

when u are upset, in a place of negativity, and or unpleasant state of being, do not think about the future.

there was a time this week when everything was crashing down on this voyage i am about to embark on. naturally, i was at a loss for god's words and anything that was even remotely positive. so, amani simply said that very phrase to me; when u are upset, in a place of negativity, and or an unpleasant state of being, do not think about the future.

so, i put an end to the future that day. and the next day, today, i was ready to think again. to dream, day dreams and happy, exciting, challenging things came to mind. the state of your being, affects the state of your thoughts, affects the future manifested.

live through the present and stop sabotaging the future. put your fear on the shelf.

even when you know to live by the phrase: "live in the moment" fear still comes and its sooo true u must deal with that fear to not continue it but to let it go in a healthy way. Its easy to tell your self that you need that fear that it is a part of you, or that you are protecting others my holding onto that, but you gotta let it go so you can live, i love your way with words keep em coming...
