Embrace the present moment with gratitude from "summary" of The Dalai Lama's Little Book of Inner Peace by Dalai Lama XIV Bstan-ʼdzin-rgya-mtsho
When we talk about embracing the present moment with gratitude, we are essentially talking about being fully present in the here and now. This means letting go of worries about the past or anxieties about the future, and instead focusing on what is happening right in front of us. It means appreciating the beauty of the world around us, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant. Gratitude plays a key role in this practice because it helps us to cultivate a sense of contentment and joy in our lives. When we are grateful for what we have, we are less likely to be consumed by feelings of lack or inadequacy. Instead, we can find happiness in the simple things, like a beautiful sunset or a kind word from a friend. By embracing the present moment with gratitude, we can also learn to accept things as they are, rather than constantly wishing for things to be different. This doesn't mean that we should never strive for improvement or change, but rather that we should learn to appreciate the present moment for what it is, imperfections and all. Practicing gratitude in this way can have a profound impact on our overall sense of well-being. It can help us to feel more connected to the world around us and to the people in our lives. It can also help us to cultivate a sense of inner peace and contentment, even in the face of life's challenges.- Embracing the present moment with gratitude is about learning to find joy in the here and now, rather than constantly chasing after some idealized version of the future. It is about being fully present in each moment, and appreciating all that life has to offer, no matter how big or small. By cultivating a sense of gratitude in our lives, we can learn to find peace and happiness in the most ordinary of moments.
