Thich Nhat Hanh

“Life can be found only in the present moment. The past is gone, the future is not yet here, and if we do not go back to ourselves in the present moment, we cannot be in touch with life.” Thich Nhat Hanh

 

 

I think what hes trying to say is that we need to live in the now and to not take advantage of the moment or of the open doors. Because i dont think youll ever have the same opputunity. And to never let an oppurtunity pass you by. You can talways live in the past because then you miss the future and you waste a whole lot of oppurtunitys. Plus its not good to always be dwelling on things you cant change. But the future you can, if you live in the now. I think that is what hes trying to say.
