"How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives." ~ Anne Dillard What shall I do with this moment - only a moment - not even a day to seize. I don't have anyone's expectations or anything that's happened before, whether I wish it hadn't happened, or I wish desperately to cling to it. I don't have anything that will be, whether something I dread or something wonderful, just this place and time, this body, this mind. I only have this precious moment, and this moment is all I need. What shall I do with this moment?
