This Week…Being in the Present

Hi Kathy,
This is a great subject. If we're present in each moment we learn and grow from each one. I just suffered through a bout of food poisoning. It reminded me of some important lessons.

I followed and appreciated all of their posts for their adventures and high spirited lifestyle. I am off to read their post.

When that post popped up, I was very happy to see it. I love the new direction they have chosen to head.

Yes Kathy, nice surprise to see them post again and what they are up to now!

Hello Kathy and thank you for sharing Ron and Alexander blog with us, I missed it and I use to comment on them all the time.

It is so easy to slide back in to the past or look to the future and waste the moment you are in. I have a saying on my wall. "

Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is your future.
Today is your life.
Live it."

Kathy it has been good to see some of the inactive members return.  Hopefully more will do he same.

Almost cried knowing that Ron and Alexandra are back, Kathy. ActiveRain is like a family that continues to meet and greet the people who truly matter!

Hello Kathy Streib, thanks for the shout-out!  It's been great to be back. 

I love these quotes.  I recently went out with a large group of old friends.  We had so much fun.  It wasn't until almost the end of the day that I noticed no one had been on their phone.  We were all present the whole day and it was incredible!  Sometimes we just have to take a breath and absorb the moment we are in.  Thank you Kathy!

Hi Kathy

I also enjoyed hearing from Ron and Alexandra this week! As well as others! So many amazing friends along this AR journey.

This quote really stood out to me today for several reasons. I'm usually pretty good at living in the moment, at least I have been. Since I've been dealing with so much there are times when it does feel like an obstacle in the moment. I've been doing my best to shift that around. Not so easy sometimes.

Most people treat the present moment as if it were an obstacle that they need to overcome. Since the present moment is life itself, it is an insane way to live.

It is so good to hear from those two once again.  They have been missed.  Their post is very inspiring, and I hope Alexandra's journey to full recovery continues.

CONGRATULATIONS Kathy, on having this blog FEATURED in the PHOTOSgroup!

Thank you so much for sharing the news of Alexandria.  Wow..what a journey they have been on.  Hope your weekend is going well...we are wet and safe in out town of Kearney...

I was glad that Ron and Alexandra Seigel came in and gave us an update, I got so used to reading a post from them daily.

I remember them both very well. I look forward to reading the post and catching up along with y’all. Everybody has such interesting journeys to share, I love it

I hope everybody can jump on the zoom call next week just so I could see your smiling faces again. It’s gonna be a blast if you can make it. 

Kathy Streib So glad Carol Williams Featured this How did I miss this 

Being in the present, and not worrying about what's coming up or what's behind us is an amazing place to be!

Hi Kathy:

Yes, it was wonderful to hear again from the Siegels and their good news - personally and business-wise. I loved your quotes about being in the present and something we all can benefit from. I know I am work in progress on that one, but I guess that's OK.

Thank you for such a thoughtful and inspiring post.

Enjoy your weekend!

Jeff
