"The best way to take care of the future is to take care of the present moment."
"Whatever the depth of our darkness, God navigated it eons before it was dark. And whatever the duration of our nights, God was there long before it ever turned to night. Therefore, despite our frequent feelings to the contrary, there is no place we might be where God was not lovingly waiting for us an eternity before we got there."
"Since we cling to our hope in the future, we do not focus our energies and capabilities on the present moment."
"Poised Positioning Be mindful of how you use your body to communicate. Be fully present in the moment. Be thoughtful and gracious in your actions. Be fluid and elegant in your movements. Express flow-walk in freedom and spontaneity. Develop an unshakeable sense of authentic inner confidence and certainty. Develop a deep respect for others. Move slower and more deliberately. Walk in integrity, class, and modesty. Smile kindly and laugh softly. Become a student of manners and etiquette."
"The present moment is the only time over which we have dominion. The most important person is always the person you are with, who is right before you."
"If you want to avoid emotional mediocrity, be on time for every present moment."
"How ironic it is then, to realize how many of we humans are masochists! That even when we are placed in paradise, the majority of us would, by choice, focus on everything outside the present moment and make ourselves suffer by thinking about Dis-Ease! Too many of us would dwell on a past that no longer exists while everything in the present moment is wonderful. What great paradoxes we as humans are capable of!"

"November is usually such a disagreeable month...as if the year had suddenly found out that she was growing old and could do nothing but weep and fret over it. This year is growing old gracefully...just like a stately old lady who knows she can be charming even with gray hair and wrinkles. We've had lovely days and delicious twilights."
"Oh, sometimes I think it is of no use to make friends. They only go out of your life after a while and leave a hurt that is worse than the emptiness before they came."
"We _are_ rich,' said Anne staunchly. 'Why, we have sixteen years to our credit, and we are as happy as queens and we've all got imaginations, more or less. Look at that sea, girls - all silver and shallow and vision of things not seen. We couldn't enjoy its loveliness any more if we had millions of dollars and ropes of diamonds."
"I feel as if I had opened a book and found roses of yesterday sweet and fragrant, between its leaves."
"Not lovelier. But a different kind of loveliness. There are so many kinds of loveliness."
"The little things of life, sweet and excellent in their place, must not be the things lived for; the highest must be sought and followed; the life of heaven must be begun here on earth."
