alive in the present moment

*

We know

how to sacrifice years for a diploma

and we are willing to work very hard

to get a job , a car , a house and so on .

But

we have difficulty

remembering

that we are ALIVE in the present moment ,

the only moment there is for us TO BE ALIVE .

Every breath we take

every step we make can be filled with

PEACE , JOY , AND SERENETY.

We need only to be awake

alive in the present moment .

  2. OH FRANCIS! Pain my dear?I seem to remember that both of us, along with some other dear blogger friends, were having BACK PAIN...me too! It was in my hip, but is so much better now. BUT...on occasion, IT HURTS! But concentrating on the MUSE...oh do I crave that! I just now walked in from being outside watering my flowers; it is still DARK with only my garden lighting on and I SO LOVE THIS TIME TO JUST THINK and soak up the silence! THINKING OF YOU TOO DEAREST ONE and enjoy every MOMENT!!! BISES, Anita

  5. Such wonderful words. I am actually reading one of Thich Nhat Hanh's books at the moment, and enjoying it so.

    Happy to have stopped by your blog!
