Living In The Moment means to focus on what's right in front of us. Some of our members say, "fantasy is where your head is at, Reality is where your feet are at." In Narcotics Anonymous we're told to bring the body, and the mind will eventually follow. Our Literature tells us when we don't Live in the Present, our problems become unreasonably magnified.

We as addicts tend to make mountains out of mole hills. Living with lack of Faith affects our Spirits. We start to project false Realities, and our fears begin to set in.

We dwelled in the past, SO we began to Live in the past. Depression, anger and resentment begin to set in.

We Surrender again to our Higher Power and let Him do what we can't do for ourselves. We learn to focus at the task at hand and Live in that Moment. We ask our Higher Power to relieve our obsessions, and we continue to do the next right thing. The Steps and Traditions of Narcotics Anonymous make it possible for us to get out of the way, so our Higher Power can reconstruct us.

It's an inside job, so we might not see the changes right away. In fact, we are sometimes the last ones to see these changes. We come to enjoy Living in the Present and develop Gratitude for where we're at.

We ask God to Guide our thoughts and our Recovery and continue on our Spiritual Journey. Our fears and anxieties slip away, and we're Free again. In This Moment: We will Live

In This Moment, We will come to realize that fear and anxiety are feelings that are based in the future. Depression and anger are feelings based in the past. We shall Live with the Joy from Living in Today.
