Tempting to look to tomorrow In an attempt to control the future To thwart the tension in our bones That we carry about the unknown Less capacity in the here and now Since leaning ahead leaves behind The ability for us to fully embrace What is right in front of our face Alternative routes are available Instead of solving the next step Try taking a step back to today Anchoring ourselves in a new way May not know where we are going But know how we will get there By being fully present to allow Joy in the moments that matter most… right now
