focus

When we are running from something isnt that what we are focusing on? when we are looking back at what we dont want or cant have or what has failed us or at what we have failed at before, we are taking a look in the rear view mirror rather than watching where we are headed. focusing on the past trying to move to a better future? not helpful for arriving at the right destination. On the other hand not to glance back at all one would also be without an idea of how far we had come, but to remember to just look back for a second and not dwell there. This idea of not wanting something when looked at thru the eyes of a relationship, we dont want those things we had lived with before, say stupidity or emotionally vacant mate, etc but when we are looking for another mate arent we focusing in on not having that and how much that has hurt us rather than focusing on the traits we do want and changing ourselves and our behaviors??
As life moves forward i want to be able to live my life with passion be happy and really all that requires is focusing on the now this moment and being happy in it. being clear with your intention and living fully now..
