Mindfulness means being awake. It means knowing what you are doing.

Meditation is really a non-doing. It is the only human endeavor I know of being where you already are.

Healing is a coming to terms with things as they are, rather than struggling to force them to be as they once were, or as we would like them to be, to feel secure or to have what we sometimes think of as our own way.

Mindfulness is so powerful that the fact that it comes out of Buddhism is irrelevant.

Paying attention and awareness are universal capacities of human beings.

Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally.

Acknowledging that sometimes, often at very crucial times, you really have no idea where you are going or even where the path lies. A the same time, you can very well know something about where you are now (even if it is knowing that you are lost, confused, enraged or without hope).
