A Blade of Grass
“Life is like a dew drop, on a blade of grass, in the morning sun.” ~Zen Proverb
This Habits 2 Goals episode is FREE for ALL subscribers.
Deepak Chopra said it like this, “Life is a lucid dream.”
How well can you recall yesterday?
How about sharing a story from your childhood?
The painting below has hung in my stairway for nearly twenty-five years. It’s a photograph from our wedding in Baja, Mexico. It has a Monet-type filter applied to it.
The original image is a beautiful, crisp photo taken by a professional photographer.
Yet, for nearly twenty-five years, the image has looked like this, intentionally blurry.
Why?
Where have the young newlyweds gone? Where did the 25 years go?
As we approach our 25th anniversary, the effect is fitting.
The wedding seems like it happened both yesterday and a lifetime ago.
The effect perfectly captures the ephemerality of life.
This moment is already gone.
No matter how old you are, your life is nearly over.
It’s just a matter of time…
…and time is illusory.
Even if you live to be 200 years old, your life will be over quickly.
This isn’t meant to be depressing.
Rather, it’s meant to stoke your appreciation for the moment — this moment.
The time will never be “right.”
This moment is a gift — it’s the “present” — that enables you to move in the direction of your goals and ideals.
Get after it.
Enjoy the show!
