As you become present and thereby total in what you do, your actions become charged with spiritual power.

You find peace not by rearranging the circumstances of your life, but by realizing who you are at the deepest level.

Ultimately, every great endeavor consists of many little steps.

Significant things often happen when you are present. Things come to you, and then you respond to what is required. The response very often comes without a premeditated idea of what you want. It is simply a response to the situation.

Pain is inevitable as long as you are identified with your mind.

Presence is when you're no longer waiting for the next moment, believing that the next moment will be more fulfilling than this one.

I enjoy going to Starbucks, having a cup of coffee, sitting in my car, driving from here to there, sitting at home looking at the trees, going for a walk with a dog. It's all very enjoyable.
