GROW HAPPY...be here now


GROW HAPPY...be here now
The phrase "be here, now" comes from a book by that title, written by a New Age philosopher named Ram Dass. It has become a popular catchphrase (especially in yoga classes, for example) to mean "be present, stay in the moment, focus, pay attention to the person you're with and your surroundings". 
It's also a nod to the mindfulness movement where you are fully mindful of your surroundings, and "present" in them. "Be happy in the moment" and you will continue to be happy as you are mindful of the present. It also speaks to the idea that if one is not busy regretting the past or worrying about the future, one is "living in the moment" and can be happy.
