Yes, yes and yes! My thoughts exactly. I meet alot of people who are very
caught up in their past lives. Some of them are so consumed by their past
actions and their karma that they lose sight of what they are supposed to be
doing, their job! Me, I know of four of mine(so far), but I try not to let
myself dwell on them. (Yeah, well, and I was not always the sweet little sis
that I am now LOL!) The moment, this eternal NOW is the most important. What
I am doing now is currently the most important thing. I could be reading, or
chatting with my bro and sis, or sitting down on the dock watching Lady Moon
on the water... But I choose to do this right now. Get my drift?
Your Lovin Sis,
Julia
