Be Here Now

"Be here now." I first heard of that saying when watching the Netflix documentary of the same name (it's no longer available on Netflix). Be Here Now shares the story of Andy Whitfield, the actor who played Spartacus on the Netflix series Spartacus. It is a story of how he approached his journey battling cancer. He chose not to worry about what happened the day before or what might happen the next day. He chose to be here now — to be present and not fear what he didn't know. To enjoy each and every moment he could. You can watch a trailer of the film HERE.

This time of year, we can get caught up in everything going on. We might worry about getting the perfect gifts for our friends and family. We might worry about our work hours and how they may negatively affect our time with family and friends. We might worry about travel plans. The list goes on and on.

We should take the advice of Andy Whitfield — especially this time of year. We should BE HERE NOW!

There are many outside influences that can affect our daily lives. We can control some of them — some are uncontrollable. We can enjoy a better holiday season by being here now.

This is our last newsletter of the year. Enjoy the holiday season! Cherish the time with your friends and family! Be here now!

See you in 2022!

Thanks for reading, and we appreciate your feedback!
