Image
Me, me, me! Mine, mine, mine! I'm right, I'm right, I'm right. What's in it for me? How do I use this? How do I take advantage of it? This is the way of the ego. Own this within yourself and you will begin to release yourself from it.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
The only moment ever available to you is the present moment. Everything else is memory or imagination.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
Surrender the dream and the truth will be revealed.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
You spend very little time in the present moment. Reality exists only in the present moment. Therefore you spend very little time in reality.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
When you are truly present, you illuminate everything around you.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
You can be sad for others but you don't have to take on their pain.
Leonard Jacobson

The past is gone. The future never arrives. In truth, there is no life outside of this moment!
