This Is It

"The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart." ~ Buddha

Where will you look for happiness? Many people spend their whole lives in search of fulfillment, looking to the future, all the while thinking they'll finally be happy after they accomplish this, or obtain that. In the end, however, life proves to be a tremendous let down. The answer was never "out there, somewhere." It was inside all along. There is no place to go, there is nothing you must do. There is no there; there is no then. Everything you ever were, everything you ever will be, you are now. Take joy in whatever you are experiencing this moment, because this moment is all there is. The time to wake up is NOW. Don't waste another precious second dreaming about "somewhere over the rainbow." You're already there! This is it!
