The NOW of a Meaningful Life

What is the NOW of a meaningful life?

It is the present that is important. It is the NOW that we have to live. Yet what is this NOW? What does the moment consist of?

We’ve all heard of the importance of setting aside our past regrets, of casting away the anxieties of the future and of focusing our thoughts in the present moment, and in the process, we were made to believe that neither the past nor the future matters. This is not true.

Man’s present moment is made up of experiences and life lessons that made him the way he is. Without it, he is like an innocent child whose eyes reveal nothing, whose laughter does not resound with the deeper meaning in life which he has found.

Man’s present is also made up of hopes for the future, of excitement for the things yet to come. Without it, he strives for nothing and has no direction in his current journey.

A meaningful life is that which is aligned. It certainly isn’t a life trapped in past bitterness or in future fears. Neither is it alienated in a meaningless present whose memory had been erased or whose hopes have all faded away.

Seek then a meaningful life. A life whose memories, hopes and present joys are perfectly woven into a wonderful eternal NOW.

When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.
