About This Quote

In 1923, poet Rainer Maria Rilke said, “I closed my eyes and turned my face into the cold wind. When I felt it swept along my skin there was no past. No future. Just now.” In other words, when you are alive in the present moment, nothing exists except your present situation. This is true even when you are in a painful situation or when you are experiencing something that is negative, such as feeling depressed or anxious.
