Staying on Ground Level

Staying on Ground Level

It can be difficult to stay on the ground level of life.

Hopes and aspirations float us to the sky among the mild clouds.

Moreover, the fears and doubts of the unknowns cover the sky with stormy clouds.  

On the other end, below the ground can be potent too.

Digging up past memories of the good and terrible times can leave you buried away from now.

Both are useful in chunks of focus and dangerous if not armed with caution.

The ground level presents the gift of now.

A priceless experience missed by many due to spirals drifting one away to a different time.

Tools are available to anchor oneself back to the here and now.

These anchors shift the attention to the current moment through activities and words.

These challenging moments reflect light on the beauty of a fleeting moment.

Staying grounded isn’t easy, yet the moments are once in a lifetime.
