Living Consciously In The Moment ~
"Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in. I drink at it; but while I drink, I see the sandy bottom and detect how shallow it is. Its thin current slides away, but eternity remains. I would drink deeper; fish in the sky, whose bottom is pebbly with stars."
~ Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862) American author, poet, philosopher. Best known for his book Walden, Life in the Woods, a reflection on simple living ~ close to nature.
"...our lives unfold only in moments. If we are not fully present for many of those moments, we may not only miss what is most valuable in our lives but also fail to realize the richness and the depth of our possibilities for growth and transformation."
~ Jon Kabat~Zinn, (b. 1944.) Ph. D Molecular Biology. American Author, Wherever You Go There You Are, Hyperion, 1994.
