Nonstriving is defined as not trying to get anywhere except into the present moment.
Nonstriving means replacing the myth that life is happening somewhere else with the belief that what’s happening now is what really matters.
–Janetti Marotta in 50 Mindful Steps to Self-Esteem
Now
What is the meaning of now?
A beginning or end?
A place or state of mind?
A time long awaited or dreaded?
This word can lie
In the quagmire of confusion and denial,
And never find its way out.
Unless, there is a moment,
To capture to meaning.
To know this moment.
And a reason,
To know this moment.
–Janetti Marotta
