This Moment

I've been somewhat lost in the absurdities for the past week or so. But then I saw the moon passed through to this side of the clouds tonight.

The mindfulness of in and out breathing, of body contemplation, of keeping consciousness of the moment, is a noble occupation and a sublime way, leading to independence of mind and to wisdom.
-Samyutta Nikaya

There are subtle ways of dependence. In awareness of our breath we renounce them all.
