There are an infinite number of ways to be dead to the moment. Yes, you can walk around in a cloud of misery or discontent, heavy sighing your way through life. But you can also be so in your own head that you are not even really aware of anything going on around you. Living in the past, living in the future, living in the NOT REAL. Attention, thought, emotion are focused on things that are not present, things that live only in your mind. This type of dead eyes may look more like a deer in headlights or a frowning emptiness rather than a heavy sigh, but it's just as disconnected from what IS. Breathe. Come back. It's all right here.
"Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God."
