"
Most of us
spend our time seeking happiness and security without acknowledging the
underlying purpose of our search. Each of us is looking for a path back
to the present: We are trying to find good enough reasons to be
satisfied now. Acknowledging
that this is the structure of the game we are playing allows us to play
it differently. How we pay attention to the present moment largely
determines the character of our experience and, therefore, the quality
of our lives." (Sam Harris)
