BELIEF, FAITH, TRUST

What do you believe in? What do you have faith in? What do you trust? I've noticed, as the years race unapologetically by, that everything from landscapes to belief systems change. Today you may very well believe in dragons - tomorrow...? Not so much. I can't help but wonder though... if time can alter so much of what can be seemingly permanent why then are we so surprised, hurt and betrayed when it changes us? Could it be that we spend to much time evading the present? Think about it. We spend so much time "planning" the future (with our endless to do lists and day planners awaiting what may happen) that we brush off our present ignoring the very place from which we can create/manifest our life experiences in moments, days, hours, months and years to come. Perhaps the present is just that...the gift. Whooooa! - put that in your pipe and smoke it! I'm puffin' away at this very moment.
