One of life's greatest gifts is a few quiet minutes each day to be in the moment--to stop whatever you are doing, clear your mind of any worries or distractions, and allow yourself to be still and alone in your thoughts. This book prompts readers to take time to enjoy the many blessings in life--the beauty of nature, the tranquility of silence, and the comfort of loving relationships. Each page offers a heartening reminder that lasting joy comes from discarding ideas of what should be and being content with what is. These soothing words will help you discover the calm that can be found in everyday life when you open up to the presence of the peace within you.
