"Wherever you are, be there totally. If..." - Quote by Eckhart Tolle
Wherever you are, be there totally. If you find your here and now intolerable and it makes you unhappy, you have three options: remove yourself from the situation, change it, or accept it totally. If you want to take responsibility for your life, you must choose one of those three options, and you must choose now. Then accept the consequences.

More on Now
“Be alert and present and see that your identity is not from your past story; who you truly are is the alert presence that is inseparable from the present moment. You are this, which has no name and no form.”

“If you are not in alignment with the moment, life is a struggle. Really, all you have to do is take responsibility for your inner alignment with now.”
