Everyone relies on old habits to get them through life’s “situations”.  These are just familiar life patterns that create some sense of order for, and distraction from, life.  We don’t really need these habits any more when we live in the “NOW”.  When we live in the NOW, the habit is no longer a habit and is not much considered, because we are in the NOW. NOW: not the last time I was in this situation.  NOW: not the last time I tried to do this.  NOW: not the same automatic response to a stimulus that even a rat can do.  We are evolving and letting go of old ways so we can fly higher.  Living in the NOW gives us freedom from our past and a blank slate for the future.  The time is NOW to drop old habits; the time is NOW so really you don’t even have old habits.

So here is to today – enjoy each moment NOW.
