If not now, when? If not now, I will turn thirty and spend thirty more years not liking myself very much. So now is good.
I dont get it….
Next year when all the happy holiday horseshit is over!
“In matters of truth and justice, there is no difference between large and small problems, for issues concerning the treatment of people are all the same.”
-Albert Einstein
When the moon is in the Seventh House
and Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars
when the children cry.
but wouldnt it be too late then?
When I’m ready.
“Relax, don’t do it, when you want to suck it to it, Relax don’t do it, when you want to come.”
As you may not be aware, this is part of a statement by the Talmudic sage, Hillel. The beginning of his statement is perhaps even more apt. “If I am not for myself, who will be for me, but if I am just for myself, what good am I?”
If not now when is generally good advice since it forces us to confront issues, problems now and not procrastinate so that the problem festers. BUt that must be balanced against another consideration, that sometimes what seem like problems NOW end up resolving themselves so attacking them now is actually premature. The statement should therefore be amended. If not now, when depends on the totality of circumtstances. Precipitous action is as bad as procrastination.
Yes it is true that illness and hate never end, but neither does kindness nor generosity…
So it is always better to look at the cup half full, count your blessings, and understand that life is too short to be unhappy! Make the most of every moment, and make every day count for those you love and for yoursrlf…
Are you still in the closet ? Come on out !!! If not now, then when ?
Judging from my own experience, and the experience of everyone I’ve ever met — you’re life will improve beyond measure. Not the least of which is your physical health. The Stress of living a lie will take its toll on your body and mind.
Are you afraid your family and friends won’t love you anymore ? I would say a conditional love based on living your life as OTHERS want you to live is a love not worth having.
It will be when WE ARE READY TO CHANGE and NOT
when we keep demanding other people change.
It begins with us.
There is far too much self righteousness these
days from people moaning about capitalism,
America and globalisation.
So much if it shallow rubbish.
The real question is “When will I change my attitude
to other people?”
When will I stop demanding “more toys” ,”better conditions
” a faster car” “more cheaper holidays” a grand plasma HD TV that is far too big for the rooms.
Easy to point at other peoples faults.
The capitalist system only responds to our selfishness.
We are the spoiled children of capital;sm and free trade.

This is amazing. I loved the Hillel reference. It reminds me of the Gandhi quote, “We must be the change we seek in the world.” I found this comment somewhat profound. Nice work.
if not now – whenNEVER…
Hey, that would make a good song!It could be a little “hair”y to sing though! LOL
We are only void with energy vibrating around.
There is no separation. We are all ONE.
That’s what quantum physics is discovering.
It’s what the enlightened mystics of all civilizations have always known.
That is so mooving and inspiring.
Enjoy your vacation with someone you love, and if you’re alone, go out, buy a homeless person a dinner and I’m sure you’ll be thankful afterwards for what you have.
Much love and thanks to Davey for the inspiration.

It is definately now… tomorrow is a gift and someday will not come. You must plan everything for today … because if you plan for tomorrow and tomorrow does not come…
Nothing should be left undone… or unsaid.
Merry Christmas Davey Wavey.
Sometimes all you need to do now is be still (peaceful). This opens you up to hearing the right answer (from your innner source of wisdom).
when I get a job.
I don’t especially feel at one with the Taleban nor with people like El Mahajiroun who want to chuck gay people from the top of cliffs.
I am sure that the people who hang gay teenagers in Iran for being gay don’t want to come anywhere near to you.
We should not sit too much in judgemment but I don’t feel much in common with the leaders of the Lords Day Resistance Army who abduct children under and use them as boy soldiers to help enslave their own people.
Hitler did th esame with the Hitler Youth whne he got the kids to denounce and imprison their own pare4nts.
Soo SORRY but your “all one” seems like a pile of “bull***” to me.
The time is now…. Keep marching on..

It has to be now for there may not be another time, so live large in the moment so that life doesn’t pass you by. The only catch is you should live large by following your heart in everything you do so make it memorable and give your talents to the world. So take to the streets, don’t look back and make your life happen!
If you’re an American Citizen without a criminal record – you’re eligible to be president.
(Now since sodomy is on the books as a crime and can be labeled as discrimination against those of a particular sexual orientation, you can tell the lawyer that defends that law that they’re not eligible to be president, they’re currently breaking the law.)
Cheers!!
Well, here in Wisconsin, it’s not usually until the cows come home…
Always when the time is right…

“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” — Dr. Seuss
It’s not a question of when, but “who?”
What’s the rush?
Ciiveey : On Davey’s update, “Change your life (without leaving your bedroom)”, you talked of : your glorious taliban, sounding as-if u are a member. What’s with-that? Why aren’t u spouting the “Same-CRAP” about taliban on this update?! Do u actually even know “what” u believe? – - – davvi
At peace and in love with yourself and the world!
When is just an image in our minds…when our vision of “when” becomes reality, it is no longer when…but it is now.
As soon as my debt is paid off… seriously
Yesterday…
we have no other option than today, now!
we love u
or,
Today is the first day of the rest of your life!
Do it now!
Love you Davey, Joey
Then.
When the time is right.
Here is not when
Just now!!! Never say ..later..
Now
Yesterday
and kisses from Hungary
Isn’t it obvious. Your mother follows Davey’s blog – just like you.
If not now, when?? My mother constantly says this too me … and I simply reply, when I do it, and at that time it will be now
– she never returns a reply … i guess that works.
Love and Peace

When? Sometime it just takes a friend, a cohort, coconspirator to “How about now!”
I’m with Jason on this one.
WWWDD?
WHEN JOE MCELDERRY COMES OUT! Mmmmm…Google him Davey!
as soon as my housemate gets out of the bathroom!
Not sure how your post responds to “If not now, when?”
But per your post, there are other qualifications required to be eligible to be president, including age and state citizenship separate from the VP’s. IMPORTANTLY, there is NO provision in the Constitution that disqualifies someone from being president for convictions of crimes.
And the Supreme Court deemed ALL state sodomy laws unconstitutional. You are free to butt fuck, or be butt fucked, all you want, and that won’t, per se, preclude you from the presidency. Of course, Republican will go wild discussing one’s sodomy desires.
When? If not now!
If you do not do it now, u never know when you will have the chance to ever do it again. Life is way too short to not do it now. I have changed my ways from keep saying later to now. I have been having that mentaility for the past year and my life has turned compleelty around, and i am feeling the3 happiest i have ever been. As well i met the most amazing boy i have ever had because of not studying and going out. Overall, life is just too short. Go out, and live as much as u can, travel, make new friends, catch up with old ones. It all will make such a difference in your inner happiness.
always
I like how you think, and after listening to your reasoning of attraction I became a fan.
I guess the cute pic of you in your underware on U-tube got me to click it, but it’s what you say that brings me back. I wish you had been around when I was 17, I might have come out alot earlier.
Oh Yeah,
Merry Christmas
If not now, than never. I think that is the term every procastinator uses, to put of whatever it is they don’t want to do at the momemt, whether it be homework or a commitment to a relationship, the answer later will be the same as now, they are just putting off having to say the answer that they know will be the one that shouldn’t be said? If that makes any sense. I had a hard time wording that!
Merry Christmas!
If not now – when? Well, I’ve asked myself that for way more years than I care to admit to to be perfectly honest. I, however, always put it off – later, tomorrow, next week, I’ll get to it sometime – at my age I still haven’t gotten to it. I have knee surgery scheduled on the 28th – this is a real “if not not, when” situation because my other knee was done two years ago and I didn’t really follow the therapy at that time – if I don’t get in gear and follow the therapy this tsime my time to be able to walk as I did in younger years will NEVER come and it will be no one’s fault but my own. I do have real enthusiasm at this time but only December 29th will tell – will I get off my a@@ and immediately start my therapy and get both legs up to their ultimate strength or fall back as I have so many times in the past? I’m going to do it this time and the 29th is my starting day.
yeah-i second the motion-considering what weve got in D.C.-yeah-fire them all.or maybe DW-can replace that mean Gov-in R.I.?
Manyana.
like my Grandmother used to say in Polish-Dziszai Nie Jutro.her favourite line.
I noticed several people refering to the theory that time does not exist. This can be true, however the question is most commonly portrayed in the individuals point of view. Time overall may not exist, but time to us is how long you have left to do what you will with the body you currently have. Our age affects us the most, and what we perceive as time widdles away at us until these shells return to dust. The question can really be answered by yourself and yourself alone. As some people have said, NOW is the most common answer to many aurgumentative topics. No one can do anything NOW, because nothing can be done in less than a millisecond, everything takes time no matter what it is. Another even more prudent question is what is now? To some, it can be taken literally as in this small millisecond in time that is already past before you begin to think about it, but to others it may be the idea of the ‘here and now,’ the idea that whatever the subject is has to be answered during the span of time a meeting may take place or even before they die. Again it comes down to perception. For me, my answer is- If not now, at least before I die. Still that’s a ways away (roughly 80 years if I sucumb to old age) but that still may not be enough time for some of the greatest technological advances our world may see. My only hope is that if it doesn’t happen in ‘the now’ at least it would happen before my journey ends…
i agree-maybe a little less of these classic lines-let the free market-take care of itself.also another classic-whats good for business-is good for the country.—the fact of the matter is-what good for health insurance companies and big pharma-is not good for me-or anyone.mankind should come first-not special interest big business.ive ranted in the past blog entries-sorry for my at times excessive ranting.—-on a lighter note-living in midwest u.s.-we had just a few inches of snow-then i heard-D.C.and eastern seaboard-would get slammed-D.C.would get maybe 20 inches.i celebrated at the thought of this.Congress and Senate get marooned-and have to maybe work o.t.to get healtcare bill passed and i hope soon.this storm-maybe a godsend.one can only hope.
It’s not when, but why.
you are so direct-thats beleiving in the hear-and now.i will bet you win.
If nor now, when? Meh- whenever…
boy-isnt that the truth.if i knew now-what i shouldve done then-yeah-it goes like that.
Whenever it is best.
this is the age of aquarius age of aquarius.
one of the anthems-of the ME-eighties.
If not now, it will be when its ment to be. Things only occur when it is most needed. As time shows for itself.
“If not now, when?” Life is a very weird cycle. We’re all either awaiting for something or try to push for it. I feel that like others have pointed out that there is no time, that sometimes if you feel you wanna do something, do it before something happens to you then there’s folks who don’t wanna push it and wait it out. Same goes for the issues that we’re dealing with in the world. I think we often expect things to change automatically and it never happens. I feel that sometimes we have to think about how it would affect certain individuals if we want things to change. People rather be intolerant than tolerant, people rather attack than work on a solution. I feel in a way that we have to figure out how we’re going to make things happen. Waiting for it may seem useless after a while. So I feel as people living in this world, we have to make moves before we forget about anything that we set out to do. Instead of just talking, just do, you know?
Yeah this is deep and I like it too!!!
If not now, when?
After the next cup of coffee.
As soon as I get there, Davey!
When I get my head around what the hell it is exactly.
……sometime today
You are truly wonderful, no matter what they say.
Seize the moment and seize the day.
Take in every breathe like it was your last, and live every second as if it would just past.
Think about others, smile all day long. Proceed on the rights, and learn from all the wrongs.
Don’t let others stop you, they don’t know who you are.
Let them go to know you, and you’re strong and wonderful heart.
<3 Love you Davey, you make my day brighter and brighter everytime I come on your webpage. Peace and Love. Keep speaking your words, you truly mean the world to a lot of people.

When we realize that the now is all there ever is. Nothing can happen in the past or future. It always happens in the now.
Reminds me of the comical movie Spaceballs, with Rick Moranis as Dark Helmet.
” When will then be now? ”
” SOON !”

Watch that.. it’s funny ! And the quote goes along with this clip
!
And as for what this really pertains to.. I think when will be after new years. THAT IS WHEN I clean the slate, and make a fresh start on Day #1 and change a lot of things that I wanted to get to. Thank you for new years !
Now IS When
If not US, then who?
So this is a lyric I wrote here about taking chances…about living in the now.

Indecision has broken loose again;
It blew through here like a hurricaine;
It crashed and burned leaving nothing to spare;
The day is charged like static on air;
Hang on baby, just hold on tight;
We’re gonna ride this high all freakin’ night;
You’re given a choice, and you’ve gotta choose;
Cause in the end you`ve got nothing to lose;
Life is full of these hair triggered moments;
An eighth of an inch can be the difference;
Between right and wrong and everything that matters;
Now bite the bullet baby, hope nothing splatters;
Nothing left but ashes and pain;
And the tears only prove;
I have everything to gain;
And have nothing to lose;
Lady luck and I need no introduction;
My creation starts with her destruction;
So climb on in for a crazy ride;
Soon you’re gonna see the other side;
Life to you is just one big game;
Well it is and its got a name;
Yeah, we play every day so place your bet;
Cause it’s Fully Loaded Russian Roullette;
A half dozen bullets and a six pack;

“Well, if not now, when?”
I feel that it is more of an either: Do what you want to do and either reap more benefits than bad or vice versa, or Just keep on living the the thought of liking the idea of which and just not act upon whatever it is you want to do.
Decisions like these are so much better to do it now, so then you aren’t left with a maddening “what if” complex about it.
I say, do whatever you can while you can. Benefit yourself, and be kind to those around you.
Merry Christmas, best wishes and haha, I always say this to everyone, make the right decisions.
now is not in the now, but forever now.
absolute living presence in given in the NOW
the only time is now.
much wealth and power is spent distracting you from your eternal state. this is the power behind the egregore mindset. keep em distracted for just another minute…hey 30 minutes….gold.
now brings later and later involves now. yet before is also now. presently now is the only truth you need for a heaven on earth.
some people are happy spending weeks on end on their couch yet other have travelled to four countries in that time.
i have been tempted by now many times, shaded in mystery only to find that my risk involved in the now paid off. Not only did i recieve some sort of reward for believing in my own ultimate reality, other hidden benefits came about due to that decision to live in the now.
later brings nothing but more madness. before brings nothing but sadness or regrets. the only amazing reality is every living breathing second before you this very moment. DO NOT get distracted by before or later. Do it all now babe and look hawt while doing it
now is the new ultimate philosophy. something that other generations have not/will not subscribe to.
they simply cannot handle the ever present changing reality taking place, many just give up and take a side street or an alley somewhere to park for awhile.,..,..
soon enough 10 years passes by and they are life wtf
the only thing beings can really give thir most talented wisdom too is the now. and trust that everything will endlessly workout and evolve.
what may appear as a negativity or an evil influence may be masked in good intentions for a later time and vice versa
the only thing you can touch is the now…you do it everytime you touch yourself or others so wildly like a studcat you are
Shaun Zeno
If not now then when
It may be true in fact to figure out that the future and the past and many other dimensions at play are operating at the present moment. Like a poster said before about time and illusion.
There is the system at play that is designed at its very core nature to alter your own future for their benefit and nevertheless it is a billion souls to one energy. The only estimation of your own involvement is a few artifacts here and there that “they” permit you to have. A sorta a terms of service or contract by involvement with a currency, entitles you to obtain and hold this given role.
What the future overlords don’t say is that you have the absolute god/Buddha/bird whatever given power to change every single moment of your waking life. Considerably more of a thought is that every millisecond is preplanned for you and you are expected to follow that plan that you agreed to to the nine/teeth lol yea
The reaction to a given moment lays in the knowledge of the focused attempts to deceive you after the fact. There is usually a multitude of reactions to choose from and if none really fit, ur mind will figure out others and more and more until it just gives up or moves on to something else to keep it occupied.
A self without time, is ok i guess. But alot of power and wealth are attributed to you being in adoration of time itself. Which is a sad thought. Because why stay in one place for so long. Keep going. I don’t even think in the moment thoughtform is idolized moreso than money it is the afterthoughts and the before thoughts on time that lead you so far away from the present moment which you were at 3 hours ago lol but continue to be blinded into other realities.
The composition of fear inplant in ur very nature of self. If you don’t agree with the current situation much work is done to make you think your thoughts are not welcome or not desired, when everywhere you may be that is where you reside and you are entirely welcome there no matter where you are. So shine! Shaun delage

right here-right now.
. . . . . . . . . yesterday.
Everyday is a chance to live one’s life differently. When we aren’t living up to our full potential, we are literally rejecting the gifts given to us by God or the universe or whomever you believe created you. Our days in this life are numbered: I am acutely aware of that now.
I just lost my dad to cancer three weeks ago, and he was taken so quickly, it was like someone stole him from me. I am still grieving, but I am also aware of all the things that he squandered while on this earth. He took his health for granted, as we all sometimes do. He smoked his entire adult life, and everyday he tried to quit. He did manage to quit smoking in his last two years only to go to chewing tobacco, which he thought was “playing the odds.” He died because he couldn’t break free of unhealthy habits. He couldn’t use his gifts to the fullest of their abilities.
In March of this year, I began to break from the habits taught to me. I began exercising seriously for the first time in my life at 26. I also began the process of coming out and becoming the true and whole person I am meant to be. I realize now that only I can hold myself back, and I don’t want to do that anymore. I want happiness and love in my life and to give that gift, in return, to others. In order to achieve that, I need a fit and healthy body. I’ve learned how much the mind and body are interconnected and that the mind can master the body, but it is also, in turn, shaped and influenced by the body. I am so much more positive of a person than I was nine months ago and it is because my body and mind are more in synch than ever before. I want to continue that on through my life, and dedicate this mind and the strength of this body in service to others. I want to help youth, as an GLBT counselor and psychologist, to discover the strength in their own personal truths and to help them find the courage that I lacked at their age. So, to answer your question, Davey, if not now, then when? The answer is simple. Ideally, now is always the right time, but we have to wake up from the delusions of impossibility first. The only thing constant is change. It is up to us to harness that constant flow of change and redirect in a positive direction rather than simply riding down the paths to our own destruction.
Tomorrow at 3:36pm.
If not now, tomorrow. If not tomorrow, then the day after. And so on. Every day gives us a new chance to turn the future into the now.
Exactly when it’s supposed to happen.
You can only really change something in your life once you have accepted and owned that change on the inside of you. Noone can make anything happen for you. Its in your hand and your hands alone. So if not now then when?
Too often in life people put things off until the “time is right.” Truth is, that time will never come as humans get in the rut of the same and familiar and before long their lives are over. I resolve to stop putting off things in life. The Carpe Diem quotation is often used but how many of us say those words and then act on them? I would venture to guess not many. I know this is not the story for resolutions and comments but here we go anyhow. I resolve to stop eating pizza while watching The Biggest Loser. I resolve to exercise my mind and body everyday and to blog more. I resolve to share my love with all who want or need it. The only time is now and I ask each of you who read this to choose “now” with me and make a true difference to yourself and our brothers and sisters! Happy Holidays!
yesterday
I’ve sat here for a good twenty minutes pondering my answer to this question and, as yet, haven’t found one. For someone who lives by the ‘I’ll do it tomorrow’ mantra, my inability to answer is disturbing.
My gut reaction is ’soon’ but I can’t think of an eloquent justification.
(Perhaps I’ll think of an answer tomorrow).
When your ready..
