There was never
any more inception
than there is now,
Nor any more youth or age
than there is now;
And will never be
any more perfection
than there is now,
Nor any more heaven or hell
than there is now.

―Walt Whitman

~

Be here now.

―Ram Dass

~

No one has heard thought
or listened to a mind
But where people have lived in inwardness
The air is charged with blessing
and does bless
Windows look out on mountains
and the walls are kind

—May Sarton

~

Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.

Sit. Stay. Heal.
