If you fear the Future
and what it may hold for you
if you are worried about the Past
and how it may haunt you
take shelter in the Now
for it will protect you
The Now remains untouched
by the Past or the Future
for they come and go
The Future is always coming
but never arrives
The Past once was
but is no more
The Now is ever-present
and remains untouched by time
If you want to connect with Now
pay attention to your breath
for Now brings Life into you
carries away whatever you discard
and returns gratitude
for whatever you have received
The Now is always available
in the Breath
And Life is always carried in the Breath
