Live in the moment

As for people and affairs of the contemporary world,
they hold no attraction for me...
So I close my gate, shut my door, hum poems
and sing songs to myself.
 ----Yoshishige No Yatsutane

There is something to be said for an ascetic life. For myself, being involved in this moment's world is a gift and a revelatory joy. What diversity, what availability of history and knowledge we have at our fingertips. Don't just shop for entertainment, plan for a learning adventure. Would that the entire world population have access to the technology which affords the few with such wondrous experiences. Radio, TV, Internet - RTI - the tools for immediate and expansive growth.
