Musings : Anticipation...Being In The Now

I started to write about 'Anticipation'........ how wonderful 'Anticipation' is, and how it has within it excitement, possibilities, expectations, hope, pleasure.....all of that right.(talking positive anticipation here )


And then as the thoughts started to sort themselves out in the mind... in came it's antithesis, (also something I dearly subscribe to).....'live in the moment' 'it's all about the present' 

Do they contradict? Seemingly So.......   But they really don't. 

When you're flush with anticipation, you are yet completely present. Anticipation of the future...but fully contained in the joy of the 'Now'. Thought about the future.......yet a function of the present. Nicely paradoxical, huh.
