In this way the creativity of the writer calls up the creativity of the reader. Reading is never passive. — Ben Okri

A mind that is racing over worries about the future or recycling resentments from the past is ill equipped to handle the challenges of the moment. By slowing down, we can train the mind to focus completely in the present. Then we will find that we can function well whatever the difficulties.
