On the recommendation of friends I've just started subscribing to Richard Rohr's daily contemplations. Rohr is a Franciscan priest and the founder of the Center for Action and Contemplation. This was yesterdays thought:
"It is living in the naked now, the “sacrament of the present moment,” that will teach us how to actually experience our experiences, whether good, bad, or ugly, and how to let them transform us. Words by themselves invariably divide the moment; pure presence lets it be what it is, as it is".
Richard Rohr, from 'The Naked Now: Learning to see as the Mystics see' p.12
