Let us not look back in anger
or forward in fear,
but around in awareness.
- James Thurber
The ultimate value of life depends upon awareness
and the power of contemplation
rather than upon mere survival.
- Aristotle
Solitude sharpens awareness of small pleasures otherwise lost.
- Kevin Patterson
Do the small things of life with a relaxed awareness.
When you are eating, eat totally -
chew totally, taste totally, smell totally.
Touch your bread, feel the texture.
Smell the bread, smell the flavor.
Chew it, let it dissolve into your being.
- Osho
Pay attention. Cultivate awareness.
Life cannot be lived fully or joyfully if
our thoughts are focused on regretting the past,
preoccupied with anticipating the future,
or lost in the mind-fog of unconscious habitual behavior.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
