I am sitting at my kitchen table waiting for my lover to arrive with lettuce and tomatoes and rum and sherry wine and a big floury loaf of bread in the fading sunlight. Coffee is percolating gently, and my mood is mellow. I have been very happy lately, just wallowing in it selfishly, knowing it will not last very long, which is all the more reason to enjoy it now. I suppose life always ends badly for almost everybody. We must have long fingers and catch at whatever we can while it is passing near us.
The ultimate secret to live a full life is to keep adding small happy moments and to believe that happiness is in now

When the glow in the mountains lights your soul When you find yourself looking at the splendour of the clouds or a bird in flight Pause and Drop a Pin When the movement of wind on the water lulls you into a timeless peace When the setting sun holds you in its golden light Pause and Drop a Pin When life shrinks you down When you lose your way and cold winds make you pull your jacket tightly over your chest When you feel darkness enter your mind and hope seems out of reach Remember all the sacred places that invited you into yourself Remember the vast expanse of all those pins A little piece of you lives in those corners. Don't let your heart shrink or your world grow small. Relax into your expansive and most radiant heart We don't end at our own skin; we will always exist everywhere we have dropped a pin.
The key to discovering presence depends on your ability to observe yourself and releasing all demands placed on the moment at hand.
