Inspirational Quote – Awareness and Treasuring the Moment

“Most of us achieve only at rare moments a clear realization of the fact that they have never tasted the fulfillment of existence, that their life does not participate in true fulfillment of existence, that their life does not participate in true fulfilled existence.  We never the less feel the deficiency at every moment, and in some measure strive to find–somwhere–what we are seeking.  Somewhere, in some province of the world or of the mind, except where we stand, where we have been set—but it is there and nowhwere else that the treasure can be found.”

                                                                       –Martin Buber

Somewhere…And it is the search for somewhere whether that somewhere is within or without which distracts or causes us to dis-attract what we need to be and become what we desire.  We search for fulfillment in so many things and sometimes these things become the source of our addictions.  Even as we grow in our awareness, and we desire to go
“within” to learn more about who we are and why we are here, it does not mean that we should try to find that “somewhere” which disengages us from life. 

We cannot spend our days and nights trying to shut everyone and everything out.  For when
we come to realize our purpose and the vision becomes more clear to us, we realize that all we need to actualize our true desires is right where we stand.  It is nowhere else.  It is no one else.  This “somewhere.”  We are all trying to get to causes procrastination.  It causes procrastination because we are unwilling to take inspired action now.  First, it is difficult to see what that inspired action is and secondly, we our resistance to “what is,” stalls our creativity.   

Yes, this somewhere is right where we stand.  It is in the Presence.  We lose sight of the
Presence and we lose sight in the Presence when we are searching for that “somewhere.”  We can’t see the donut because we are so busy staring at the hole.  There are so many resources, opportunities, people, and things available to us in the present moment—in the now.  We just have to stop searching outside of the now and embrace it.  For in all honesty, we created it.  We created it; therefore, it must be created for a reason we desired at some moment and it is this moment which we must awaken to in order to transform all other moments as we truly desire it to be.
