Do not lose yourself
in the future.
The past no longer is.
The future has not yet to come.
Looking deeply at life
as it is
in the very here and now
the practitioner dwells
in stability and freedom.
We must be diligent today.
To wait until tomorrow
is too late.
Death comes unexpectedly.
How can we bargain with it?
The sage calls a person
who knows how to dwell
in mindfulness
day and night
"one who knows
the better way to live alone."
--- B. Sutta
