Loving the present moment

The author was a Vietnamese Roman Catholic archbishop who spent 13 years in a Communist re-education camp, nine years of which were in solitary confinement:

Living and loving the present moment is the key to a spiritual life. Without trust, hope and love, we will not be able to endure the hardship of life.

Trust, hope and love will surely lead us to happiness, peace and consolation going beyond the ups and downs of human relationships.

-- Francis Xavier Nguyen Van Thuan
