Life shouldn’t always be about getting somewhere. At some point, it should be about now. At some point, now needs to be enough. Otherwise, we’ll just keep chasing a fantasy—an imaginary place in the future where everything is exactly the way we want it to be.
We’re all trying to get to a place where all of our needs and desires are met. That is the chase. But the chase clouds the moment. The chase blinds us to what we already have, and to the availability of peace in the moment.
We can’t have everything we want, but we can have peace. It’s available to all of us, right now.
