Living in the now is freedom from all problems connected with time. You ought to remember that sentence, you ought to memorize it, and ought to take it out, you ought to practice it, you ought to apply it.

They are thieves of genuine powers. As always, your awareness of their thievery is your first fine step toward casting them out.
