Random quote of the day:
“Even when we’re finally where we want to be—with the person we love, with the things we struggled for—our eyes are still on the horizon. They’re still on where to go next, what to do next, what we want the person we love to do and be. If we just stay where we are in the present moment, seeing what we’re seeing and hearing what we’re hearing and forgetting everything else, we feel we’re about to die; and our mind tortures us until we think of something else to live for. We have to keep finding a way away from where we are, into what we imagine is the future.
—Peter Kingsley, In the Dark Places of Wisdom
