"Fun Fun Fun...

Just layin' in the sun!" I wish, its been gray and wet and cold for days. I need to go somewhere dry, and hot and sunny. At least I got out of the house today. I've been thinking a lot lately about living in the moment, and what it means. As far as I can tell, I have been living in the moment for most of my life, with brief but frequent forays into the future and past, to ponder events over which I have little or no control, respectively. Today though, I spent about two hours so wrapped up in what I was experiencing at the moment that I did not feel the passage of time at all. When I came out of this state, I was acutely aware of every second as it slipped by. Eventually this feeling wore off, but I am left with a profound sense of emptiness as I think of the things I could have done with those seconds. As I type, however, I realize that I spent them with an amazing person, having quite a good time, and most definetely not wasting my time. I suppose that what I need is to stop wondering about the long run, or how to get ahead in life, and just focus on what I just said, what colour her dress is, and what it is that I'm doing at the time. I'm not saying don't make plans, I'm saying plan to do something comletely unexpected.
