This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for February 03, 2009:
Mostly the present. Learning to live in the present is a hard task for many. Focusing on the present, which is the only timeframe in which we can act, which is the only thing that makes change, makes life richer and has more integrity. However, the actions are balanced by learning lessons of the past and keeping in mind the goals of the future.
One of my favorite quotes: If you want to know the past, to know what has caused you, look at yourself in the present, for that is the past's effect. If you want to know your future, then look at yourself in the present, for that is the cause of the future. (from Buddha Speaks)
