And I'm dancing as if I were in the woods with you

I'm back to reading "The New Earth" [by. Eckhartt Tolle]. I had to take a little break from it and start living in my state of awareness, Here's a little juicy morsel to kick your morning off that I found pretty powerful...

"The ego doesn't know that your only opportunity for being at peace IS now. Or maybe it does know, and it is afraid that you may find this out. Peace, after all, is the end of the ego. How to be at peace now? By making peace with the present moment. The present moment is the field on which the game of life happens. It cannot happen anywhere else. Once you have made peace with the present moment, see what happens, what you can do or choose to do, or rather what life does through you. There are three words that convey the secret of the art of living, the secret of all success and happiness: One With Life. Being one with life is being one with Now. You then realize that you don't live your life but life lives you. LIFE IS THE DANCE, AND YOU ARE THE DANCER."
