Treasure of now

Now is what you have. Now is all you’ve ever had, and look how much you’ve done with it.

Now there’s more to do, and now is when you can. Now comes with opportunity, so be careful not to turn it into regret.

Now is what every person has in common. That makes now especially nice to share.

You recall what was, you imagine what will. Yet when you live, when you touch the richness, when you breathe and feel and love, that’s now.

Now the sun shines, now the wind blows. Now you make your way through the experience of being.

The treasure of now fills your life. Give to it your full embrace.

— Ralph Marston
