I try to keep the basic premise of Zen close to heart: 'live in the moment'. Not only in the narrow sense of being present in the moment, but also in a wider sense.

It's easy to live with sentiments such as: if I work just a bit more, I can have a nice house in fifteen years. Once I can buy a Mac Pro, I will really be productive.

The cold fact is that life can end quickly. The present moment is the only thing we have, so treasure it ;). Of course, that's not always easy...
