“You create your future moment by moment.”

“You have ordinary moments and ordinary moments and more ordinary moments, and then, suddenly, there is something monumental right there. You have past and future colliding in the present, your own personal Big Bang, and nothing will ever be the same.”

“The future is completely open, and we are writing it moment to moment.”

“Surrender is surrender to this moment, not to a story through which you interpret this moment and then try to resign yourself to it. … Can you accept the isness of this moment and not confuse it with a story the mind has created around it?”

“There is no moment more precious than the exact moment they are living. And that exact moment has a lot to do with how future moments play out.”

“The moment when you really experience that you have created yourself being whatever way you are, at that same moment you will never have to be that way again.”

“Fear means being afraid of the future. When you are not ready to accept the future moments, it becomes fear.”

“In every moment the past is born and the present flows into the future, taking the moment that already passed.”

“The most beautiful moments in life are moments when you are expressing your joy, not when you are seeking it.”

“But they wanted you. Time is not something you give back. The very next moment may be answer to your prayer. To deny that is to deny the most important part of the future.”
