Thanks again so much for your support!

Going sailing and spending time with friends was a great reminder for me to stop and cherish the present moment more often. I get lost in work and love making things for the future, but sometimes it’s important to realize that our life is made up of present moments strung together. And I'm learning to be here now.

Alan Watts has a great quote that has stuck with me:

“For unless one is able to live fully in the present, the future is a hoax. There is no point whatever in making plans for a future which you will never be able to enjoy. When your plans mature, you will still be living for some other future beyond. You will never, never be able to sit back with full contentment and say, "Now, I've arrived!" Your entire education has deprived you of this capacity because it was preparing you for the future, instead of showing you how to be alive now.”
— Alan Watts

As with most things, I think balance is key here - to be responsible with our future, aware of our past, and appreciative of the present moment.

Thanks to Rani, Meera, Sharat, Akshay, and James for a great day and the reminder that there is wonder in every moment.
