“Because of the routines we follow, we often forget that life is an ongoing adventure. . . Life is pure adventure, and the sooner we realize that, the quicker we will be able to treat life as art: to bring all our energies to each encounter, to remain flexible enough to notice and admit when what we expected to happen did not happen. We need to remember that we are created creative and can invent new scenarios as frequently as they are needed.”
“Sometimes I need only to stand wherever I am to be blessed.”
“Make the decision to love this day, this place, this moment, this special experience of life with the people around you. And there will be so very much to love.”

“Do not move, do not go. Sink within this moment. Hold it for ever.”
