This is the Present

I saw this reflection of my Christmas poinsettia this morning and thought about how the reflection is like  a glimpse to the future...we can see it but it never gets here because it becomes Now or the Present!  Time is a funny concept..no time, lost time, making time, time for this or that, on time, perfect timing, giving ourselves time, planning a time to do something, making time in the future for something. 

Instead of celebrating a new year, I will celebrate the new day..the Now... the Present.  

 And this is completely opposite from thinking and planning how to spend time in the future!   A paradox  (a statement or proposition that, despite sound (or apparently sound) reasoning from acceptable premises, leads to a conclusion that seems senseless, logically unacceptable, or self-contradictory)  for sure!    Making plans for some vacation time for some of those days in the future!!   

But today, I am being here at December 31, 2017.    Have a great day!
