Present moment reminder from Eckhart Tolle

From this present moment reminder I get this:

Actually when you meditate upon it all, there is only now. Everything else is an energetic emotional  imprint that is tacked onto layers in the ever expanding now moment.  When we focus on them, our attention is distracted away from the flowers that are growing in the now. To create in healthy ways, we need to be in the now.  We only create more of the same when we create from our perspectives of standing in the past or standing in the future. Thoughts of past or future will not be solid ground, as they are either whimsical or fearful and the creations from them will therefore be the same.  In the same way creating from what we did in the past, remembering how things were in the old ways or with reference to whats acceptable or tolerated within the restrictions of the old ways, will too only bring more of the same.

Until we clear out our old war bunkers, we will still feel the need to scurry back to them. As we create by default we will continue to create from the fears confined to the old war bunker mentality. So, Stop. Stop mind chatter. Be in stillness to  Arch yourself up and out of old spaces and  see the view from the mountain. See the buds that push up out of the cleansing snow, and turn to face the sun.

When we always do what we always do, we always get what we always got.Lets get something new.
