Its dynamic is not unlike that of strong desire except that fear leans backward into the last safe moment while desire leans forward toward the next possibility of satisfaction. Each lacks presence. ~ Stephen Levine<\/p>\n<p>I have one aim only: to impart a fraction of <strong><em>the meaning of the word now<\/em><\/strong>. ~ Frederick S. Perls<\/p>\n<p>Some people live as though they are already dead. There are people moving around us who are <strong><em>consumed by their past; terrified of their future<\/em><\/strong>, and stuck in their anger and jealousy. They are not alive; they are just walking corpses ~ Thich Nhat Hanh<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Now is the time<\/em><\/strong> to make good use of time.<\/p>\n<p>Today is the day <strong><em>to begin a perfect day<\/em><\/strong>. ~ Sri Chinmoy<\/p>\n<p>Our attention is i<strong><em>n the moment<\/em><\/strong>; we are <strong><em>not afraid of the future or ashamed of the past<\/em><\/strong>. ~ Jose Luis Ruiz<\/p>\n<p>All you really need to do is <strong><em>accept this moment fully<\/em><\/strong>. You are then <strong><em>at ease in the here and now and at ease with yourself. <\/em><\/strong>~ Eckhart Tolle<\/p>\n<p>When you realize that <strong><em>eternity is right here now<\/em><\/strong>, that it is within your possibility to <strong><em>experience the eternity of your own truth and being<\/em><\/strong>, then you grasp the following:\u00a0 <strong><em>That which you are was never born and will never die<\/em><\/strong>. . . . ~ Joseph Campbell<\/p>\n<p>If you do something wrong, <strong><em>do not keep looking back and feeling ashamed of it; its what is happening now that matters<\/em><\/strong>. ~ Rory Leech<\/p>\n<p>We have only <strong><em>this moment, sparkling like a star<\/em><\/strong> in our hand and <strong><em>melting like a snowflake. ~ <\/em><\/strong>Marie B. Ray<\/p>\n<p>We are living in a culture <strong><em>entirely hypnotized by the illusion of time<\/em><\/strong>, in which the so-called <strong><em>present moment is felt<\/em><\/strong> as nothing but an infinitesimal hairline between <strong><em>an all-powerfully causative past and an absorbingly important future. We have no present<\/em><\/strong>. Our consciousness is almost completely preoccupied with memory and expectation. We do not realize that there never was, is, nor will be any other experience than present experience. We are therefore out of touch with reality. We confuse the world as talked about, described, and measured with the world, which actually is. We are sick with a fascination for the useful tools of names and numbers, of symbols, signs, conceptions and ideas. ~ Alan Wilson Watts<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Be Here Now<\/em><\/strong>. ~ Ram Dass<\/p>\n<p>For more timely talk, weight loss wisdom and sheer joy, visit the Kick in the Tush Club!<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/maildogmanager.com\/lptrack.html?OurLadyofWeightLoss::671::http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/30757154492\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook\/Kick in the Tush Club<\/a>!<br \/>\n<em><strong><br \/>\nSpread the word\u2013NOT the icing!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong><\/strong><\/em>Janice<\/p>\n<p>PS:\u00a0 Dictated but not read by OLWL.\u00a0 Excuse all typos!<\/p>\n<p>\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<br \/>\nFor the best life, wellness and weight loss wisdom, visit Janice:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourladyofweightloss.com\/\"><br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourladyofweightloss.com\" target=\"_blank\">Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a><br \/>\nsign up for the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/maildogmanager.com\/surveys\/OurLadyofWeightLoss\/optin1.html\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Kick in the Tush Club<\/em><\/a> e-letter<br \/>\njoin and chat: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/30757154492\/\" target=\"_blank\">Kick in the Tush Club\/Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: Where are you?
