Deepak Chopra - Presence lyrics

Presence by Deepak Chopra P stands for Presence Today I will find my soul here and now This affirmation is about the present moment Make this your promise for today Try to be as present as you can And when you become aware that you have wandered from the present moment Ask to be brought back The mind easily slips out of the now We fantasize about the future We reminisce about the past When we feel distressed We anticipate the pain to come Or remember the pain that went before Each detour Takes us out of the present moment Yet the here and now Is the only meeting place where you will find your soul Today I will not dwell on the past or the future I will realize I have no need of either the past or the future When I step fully into the present Today I will release all ghosts from my past So I may vanquish all ills I will no longer hold on to pain until it becomes anger Today I will no longer hold on to pleasure before it becomes an addiction I will not anticipate pain or pleasure in the future to releive my anxiety The present is the home of my being Past and future are only the dreams Of whom I was Or what I might become Today I will release the past And it's burden of wounded dreams Deepak Chopra
