"Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have. Make the Now the primary focus of your life."

"It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them."

These guys were fun and kept me on my toes all year. I started sending them a "quote of the day" earlier in the year and we have only missed a few days ... jeepers, not sure what they are getting out of it really. I dont get a lot of feedback from these mutants so started to introduce them to philosophers, and meditations. At first, they rebelled and then got into it!

Eckhart Tolle is a spiritual teacher. He is a German-born resident of Canada best known as the author of The Power of Now and A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose. In 2008, The New York Times called Tolle "the most popular spiritual author in the United States". Have a squiz if you want!
