“Love is the opposite of judgment. Love is acceptance. It is accepting our own judgments without acting on them and accepting other people's judgments and beliefs without reacting to them. The result of acceptance is peace. Therefore, the antidote to war is acceptance. If everyone would let everyone else have their beliefs, it would be possible for people to live in harmony.”

“The only thing that exists is the present moment, the Now, but we, as human beings, have a particular relationship with our thoughts that takes us out of the experience of the moment.”
― Gina Lake, Embracing the Now: Finding Peace and Happiness in What Is

“with our thoughts—any thought—we lose touch with the peace and contentment of the Now.”
