our only problem

All that we are looking for in life – all the happiness, contentment, and peace of mind – is right here in the present moment.

Our very own awareness is itself fundamentally pure and good.

The only problem is that we get so caught up in the ups and downs of life that we don’t take the time to pause and notice what we already have.
