Accept the beauty of the present moment from "summary" of You Are Here by Thich Nhat Hanh
The beauty of the present moment is always available to us, yet we often overlook it in our pursuit of the future or dwelling on the past. We may be caught in our worries, regrets, or anxieties, losing touch with the simple joys that are right in front of us. But by practicing mindfulness, we can learn to come back to the present moment and appreciate its beauty. When we accept the beauty of the present moment, we let go of our constant striving and allow ourselves to be fully present. We can see the wonders of life unfolding around us – the colors of the sky, the sounds of nature, the smiles of loved ones. By embracing the present moment, we cultivate a sense of gratitude and wonder for the world we inhabit. Mindfulness helps us to see that the present moment is all we truly have. The past is gone, and the future is yet to come – all we have is now. By accepting the beauty of the present moment, we can find peace and contentment in the here and now. We let go of our expectations and judgments, and simply be with what is. In our fast-paced world, it can be easy to get caught up in the busyness of life and forget to appreciate the little moments that make it worthwhile. But when we slow down and pay attention to the beauty around us, we open ourselves up to a world of wonder and joy. We can find beauty in the simplest of things – a flower blooming, a child laughing, a warm cup of tea. By accepting the beauty of the present moment, we can find a sense of calm and clarity in our lives. We can let go of our worries and fears, and instead focus on the here and now. We can appreciate the richness of each moment, knowing that it is a gift to be savored and enjoyed. So let us practice mindfulness and embrace the beauty of the present moment. Let us open our hearts to the wonders of life that surround us, and find peace in the simplicity of just being. The beauty of the present moment is always available to us – we just need to open our eyes and hearts to see it.
