Wherever you are

There is a saying that "wherever you are, you are exactly where you need to be." 

Often, this is taken as a kind of mystical judgment of the intent of the Universe on our lives, but in reality it means that where ever you are - that is your present and your reality. You need to be there because if you think you should be somewhere else you will miss your present.

When we place ourselves in the mindset of missing our present we miss opportunities, epiphanies, realizations and chances to make decisions that will bring change to our lives.

Living in the present means you are paying attention, not just to what is currently around you but to new understandings of the past and potential choices for the future.

Wherever you are,

you are exactly where you need to be.

Tomorrow it may be a different place,

but you belong there too.
