Attaining inner simplicity is learning to live happily in the present moment.
Keep in mind that life is a continuous succession of present moments.

Caretake this moment.
Immerse yourself in its particulars.
Respond to this person, this challenge, this deed.
Quit the evasions. Stop giving yourself needless trouble.
It is time to really live; to fully inhabit the situation you happen be now.
-Epictetus, submitted by Starr L.

Ponder this moment.

Whatever you are doing right now, just pause for 10 seconds and notice how remarkable it is that you took this moment to read a couple of inspirational quotes.

Even as you dive back into your crazy day....I hope you can be here, now.

Peace,
Paul
