I wait for my evening train, sitting by the Hoboken waterfront, the splashing of waves against the seawall a creates a soothing backdrop. I watch as white clouds in blue skies catch fire in the setting sun and burn to grey streamers in the deepening gloom. Moonlight dances in the ripples and waves. And I find myself at peace.
I am not concerned about tomorrow, for I am here, right now.
And right here, right now is all I can be.
And so I ignore the news sites and the weather sites and the television. I regularly check the National Weather Service (which presents current conditions and likely storm tracks without all the hubris).
I make sure we have a tidy stock of water, candles, matches, batteries for the radio, and food. I tape windows that may need it.
And then I relax.
Tomorrow is another day.
