The Eternal Now

This is a painting I did of the sun setting over the Oregon coast. It's a Christmas gift for my mom. She grew up in Oregon and we all spent our summers up there growing up. It has always been a magical place for me. The forests, the ocean, the misty atmosphere, the seafood. A far cry from the desert where I live now.

When I think about being there, on that beach, watching that sunset - I am experiencing all those things now, in the present moment. When I think about going to work tomorrow and the things I have to do, that is happening now, not tomorrow. The only experience we can ever have is now. All thoughts, emotions, feelings, being itself, happens now.

Now is eternal.
