George Carlin once said,
“Everything is either in the near future or recent past”



Now
is


So brief
So minute
So important


So


Stop what you’re doing
What you’re planning
What you’re wanting


and
Enjoy
This
Second



Before the house is quiet.

You got that right, we only have the NOW to create our life the way it affects others and ourselves for our highest good. Never should we miss the opportunity to LIVE in the NOW.

Wonderfully wise first entry.
Welcome to Pip!

Love,
Margherita

I see you've been welcomed, but not yet
by me...

My heartiest greetings to your first post
surrounding a loss that the world has yet
to appreciate...

He had his place...and right now, as I see it,
there is no one out there that will ever
fill his tennies.

Welcome to Passions!
