ketogah rated 3 months ago- Good point. Be here now and all that. From the page: "So what is the point of waiting? What exactly are you waiting for? Is somebody going to give you what you always wanted? Will a train come from Heaven bringing you goodies? But nothing that could ever happen could be as good, as precious, as who you are.What stops you from being, from being present, is nothing but your hope for the future. Hoping for something to be different keeps you looking for some future fantasy. But it is a mirage; you'll never get there. The mirage stops you from seeing the obvious, the preciousness of Being. It is a great distortion, a great misunderstanding of what will fulfill you. When you follow the mirage, you are rejecting yourself.--A.H. Almaas, from 365 Nirvana, Here and Now by Josh Baran" thank you JIR for posting this http://jir.stumbleupon.com/

The only certainty here is this no-good existence, what?
