Kiss your life. Accept it, just as it is. Today. Now. So that those moments of happiness you're waiting for don't pass you by.
Death is as sure for that which is born, as birth is for that which is dead. Therefore grieve not for what is inevitable. The Bhagavad Gita
What is the value of a prolonged life which is wasted, inexperienced by years in this world? Better a moment of full consciousness, because that gives one a start in searching after his supreme interest.
We are so attached to our way of life that we turn down opportunities simply because we don't know what to do.
