in the present moment
is to see all that is now,
all that has been since time began,
and all that shall be unto the world's end;
for all things are of
one kind and one form
The author of the above words the Roman emperor and philosopher Marcus Aurelius was killed by a mosquito.
He is a good example of a man of humility, a great quality.

DeleteI wonder where you find everything, Gwil! As I have said before, there is no telling what will come up on this blog and that makes it all the more worth reading. I hope you are out on your trail now, enjoying the awakening life . The above quote is a bit surprising considdering the emperors rather superior outlook on their citizens, especially those with lower rank. So Aurelius might have been an exception?

Just replied to your comment to mine at Bad Hip. Sorry it took so long.
