“Thomas Merton said to keep in mind these three words.

Now. Here. This.

Now. Not the past or the future.

Here. Exactly where you are.

This. Whatever it is you’re doing.

Merton believed that if you can to the intersection of these three things:now, here, this, then there is nothing to fear. You will be free to truly appreciate your life.”

-Now.Here.This

"When you love someone, you open yourself up to suffering. That’s the sad truth. Maybe they’ll break your heart, maybe you’ll break their heart and never be able to look at yourself in the same way. Those are the risks. The thought of losing so much control over personal happiness is unbearable. That’s the burden. Like wings, they have weight, we feel that weight on our backs, but they are a burden that lifts us. Burdens which allow us to fly."
