"Be present. I would encourage you - just to be present. Be present and open to the moment that is unfolding before you. Because, ultimately, your life is made up of moments. So don't miss them by being lost in the past or anticipating the future. Don't be absent from your own life."
J. Lange


Quotes like this always make me think of Paris; while I was there, my sole goal was to relish the moment I was in. I did, and it was marvelous. Now that I am -unfortunately- no longer there, I find I need to focus on this concept more. Right now, right here, even though sometimes I feel like I'd rather be elsewhere.
