The Eternal Now
The only way to solve the insoluble
is to dissolve into this moment,
relinquish everything
and become utterly
selfless.
The secret of the escape artist
is to slip unnoticed
Into the present.
True patience requires
not waiting for that which,
every time you look up,
already arrived.
The past is irredeemable,
the future unapproachable.
The only time to set your
watch to is
now.
Christopher M. Swan 2010
