What a beautiful way to describe being present.

There's a quote widely attributed to Laozi, author of the Tao Te Ching

  If you are depressed you are living in the past. 
  If you are anxious you are living in the future. 
  If you are at peace you are living in the present.

Widely attributed to Laozi but actually from "Jimmy R":

Not as exciting as Laozi but I'll take it. Jimmy R deserves credit where credit is due.
