Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?

The best now ever

What you feel today was set in motion a long time ago. Even so, it is as fresh as a drop of dew a few minutes before the sun comes up.

What you know right now has taken a lifetime to discover. Yet before you had learned anything about life you understood it.

A thousand years of solid effort would not exhaust your capabilities, nor deplete your imagination. Now is always with you, always adding to what’s possible.

Think of what an enormous, amazing existence is yours right now. Decide anew how you’ll do it justice, and act right away on your decision.

The point is not how much time you have, or how little. For time is a concept that cannot encompass all you experience, all you are.

The point is how richly you fill the moment you’re in. Let your awareness dive deeply into the depth of your being, and make this the best now ever.

— Ralph Marston
