“When we are present, our mind does not try to go somewhere else. It meets the moment as it is. This is our practice, learning not to run from, and learning not to hold on to, what is here. Bad moments come and go. Good moments come and go. You can fight the bad, but it will be back. You can hold on to the good, but it will pass. The only way to find real peace is to be present with what is. Just be present, more and more, more and more.”
