Squeeze Each Moment, Drink Each Moment

O slave of desire, float upon the stream, little spider; stick to your web, or else abandon your sorrows for the way. - Gautama Buddha

A real person of understanding has no desire. She lives in the moment, and whatsoever is available, she enjoys it to its totality. She squeezes each moment, she drinks each moment! She eats whatsoever is available. She sleeps, but she is total in whatsoever she is doing. - Osho

"Straighten Yourself, Straighten the Crooked" - Gautama Buddha

We are not in our bodies;
our bodies are
in us.
For this reason alone -
it's not useful to focus on faults and ailments -
to the extent they must define us.
We can aspire
to our own inner authority, to our own values
and moral codes:
we can witness our faults and ailments
dissolve.
We know in our hearts
if there's something we're doing wrong
we can change it,
and that is enough.
