Quotes About Present

Balance lives in the present. When you feel the earth moving, bring yourself back to the now. You'll handle whatever shake-up the next moment brings when you get to it.

Our eyes are not focused for the things near us, but those far away.

We are living for to-morrow, to-morrow, and yet, When tomorrow comes it still will be to-morrow!
