If I stay very still…. the moment will pass
If you are content with the status quo, your progress will stop. Always seek for ways to improve yourself and continue to move forward one step at a time.
The moment will pass, yes.. but you are still in the same place, facing the same dilemma. The only constant in life is change. Accept the challenge/opportunity and move on. Letting go is not always easy, but it is progress.

As summer brings longer days, the night invites dreams with poignant moments and poetic prose. memories, longing / desire whisper through dreams of yesteryear… that only you can hear.
A moment it time, can seem a lifetime. Being mindful means means you can decide how to make it a positive experience.. only you can decide how to live it.
Put all your effort into the “now”. You can only do your absolute best right this moment; not the past, not in the future, but now. (PL2018.27)

OK I do know this, he is eating, using his litter and except for one brief conversation at me, he is quiet. NO, he has not come near me, or have we been in the same room together. Does a 5 second, pause and acknowledge and then skedaddle count?

Yesterday is a bit of a blur. Sometimes in life we find ourselves being led by an unknown force, we don’t realize it at the time, we simply act on instinct/impulse. It has happened to me before, and i adapt, may not know right away why, or how come I did or I’m doing something. But eventually… the light bulb goes on.

Today I will try for a day of quiet contemplation and reflection. Have a good day everyone!
