The Greatest Gift Ever!
Posted on 03. Apr, 2010 by Ken Bechtel in The Goo Blog
When you see a butterfly do you see the caterpillar that it was? When you see a caterpillar, do you see the butterfly it will be?
Whether you do or not really makes no difference. Because the butterfly and the caterpillar are what they are, no matter what you think.
The way you can most honor the butterfly, the caterpillar or anything else is to see it for what it is in present time. Recognize the greatness that it is right now.  Not what it was in the past or what it has the potential to be in the future.
If we all did this we would never have to think about having not been enough in the past or not yet being what we could be. Nor would we have to think “I wish it could be like it used to be†or “I hope it is better in the future.â€
We would know that in every moment we are complete. Complete meaning that we have everything we need to fully experience this moment, if we allow ourselves to do so.
Present time is the only place from which we can create. So when we allow all of our energy to be here with us in present time we are as powerful as we can possibly be. There is no strength in critiquing the past or projecting expectations into the future.
Holding the space for ourselves and everyone else to be complete in the moment is the essence of pure love. The greatest gift ever!
