Now is now

This quote was on the Gratefulness.org website today:

It is never too late to become what you might have been.

-- George Eliot

I don't think that is true in terms of worldly ambition, mind you. If I might have been a ballet dancer at eighteen, I don't think I can take that up at fifty-eight. However, I do think this is very true in terms of character, emotional development and the cultivation of spiritual practice. Now is the only time there is, afterall!
