The present moment.

I just ran across a quote from Philo of Alexandria  ancient Jewish Philosopher.

"Today means boundless and inexhaustible eternity.  Months and years and all periods of time are concepts of men, who gauge everything by number;  but the the true name of eternity is Today."

I constantly search for peace and eternity somewhere else, managing always to forget that they are here now.
