On my morning walk, I spotted this little 🦆 duck swimming directly towards me on the lake I was facing. The air was still. The water like glass. It was beautiful. I noticed the wake it was leaving behind, how the still water rippled out far and wide.
And I suddenly understood!
For most of my life I have been believing that the wake ( past) determines my present and future. This little duck was telling me a different story. How can the wake she was leaving behind determine her destination or how she was feeling in that perfect present moment??
Well, only if she believes it does.
What silly ducks we are! Where are you believing your past has anything to do with your present or future?
