Give attention to the present; give attention to your behavior, to your reactions, moods, thoughts, emotions, fears, and desires as they occur in the present. If you can be present enough to watch all those things, not critically or analytically but non-judgmentally, then you are dealing with the past and dissolving it through the power of your presence. You cannot find yourself by going into the past. You find yourself by coming into the present. …Eckhart Tolle

If you talk about things you have not experienced, you are wasting your and other people’s time. As you continue the practice of looking deeply, you will see this more and more clearly, and you will save a lot of paper and publishing enterprises and have more time to enjoy your tea and live your daily life in mindfulness.

When we are striving to live an empowered life, our every choice is important. Even the color of the clothes we wear for the day can affect us and the people around us. Certainly the attitude we choose to face the day and the people around us has an effect. Life itself is a choice. The choice of life is one we make every day whether we realize it or not. Every action we take either supports life, or not. We are the only ones who can make a difference - by each and every choice we make …Marie T. Russell

I’ll die one day and the day after that the sun will rise. And then one day the sun will die too, transformed into a supernova. And the day after that, as each and every day before, countless suns will rise over countless planets and beings, known only in our imaginations. 2/18/07 morning pages

In the light of a truly freed mind no prejudice can disguise itself as zeal, no bullying can masquerade as leadership, no pettiness can pose as importance. The freed mind will never confuse a sentimentality with a true emotion, an act of violence with an act of heroism, a slogan with a cause. Men and women with freed minds may often be mistaken, but they are seldom fooled. They may be influenced, but they can't be intimidated. They may be perplexed, but they will never be lost… Robert F. Kennedy

Rewriting separates the men from the boys. The first draft is love. The second is sex. The third is fun. The rest are all pulling teeth. Getting that seventh draft done is like dropping your beautiful vase on the floor and trying to glue all the million little pieces together to make it look good again. …Matthew Sand

The problem with “You should be doing better,” is that we become convinced that we don’t naturally excel or strive, seek or care. We come to believe that without tyrannical exhortation nothing good or excellent would ever happen. It is a lie. We are made to excel, strive, seek and care. If excelling, striving, seeking and caring were punished by death, we would do it anyway . ..John Anderson, Ph.D
