Now. The only moment that matters.

From the recent blockbuster " Kung Fu Panda ", there's a line worth revisiting. A line from Master Wu Gwai.

" Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Now is a gift, that's why it's called Present. "

For booklovers who've read Spencer Johnson's The Present, this pun should sound pretty familiar.

And what I gonna share with you is some kind of How To, for you to practise at every moment of Now that makes you feel good and gets you connected with your Being. From a book I'm currently reading - Practising the Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle.

Make this a habit. From time to time, ask yourself one powerful question? "Am I at ease at this moment?" or "What's going on inside me at this moment?"

But don't answer it immediately. All you need is to observe, from within.

- Your current thoughts,
- Your feelings about such thoughts,
- Any body tension rooted from such feelings?

The essence of such constant diagnosis is to detect the What, if any, that makes you resist the moment of Now, and in turn your whole Life, since Life is composed of hundreds of trillions of Now moments.

We have to find out the root causes that deter one from achieving his /her dream life. Once the What is found, we can then get to the How to rectify it.

So let's be patient and be in the Now. And see What you've got.
