"Infinite gratitude towards all things past;
infinite service to all things present;
infinite responsibility to all things future."

Can we acknowledge how this, and only this, total timeless engagement with life is right, natural, our only home?
Can we recognize that anything less than such an openhearted mindful embrace of the whole is partial, incomplete, inadequate, and therefore - painfully unsatisfying?
Can we then reduce suffering by settling for nothing less?
Can we recognize how this is as plainly reasonable & practical as pulling a splinter out of our thumb?
