When we live in the past, we miss out on the current happenings. What is now is beautiful, if we do not take cognisance of it, it will soon pass away. How many of us indulge in past memories, whether good, bad, or ugly? And how many of us are preoccupied with what will happen in the future? Either way, we miss out on the present. The reason the present is called the present (gift) is because it is life’s most important opportunity for us. Live in the moment, live in the "Now" powerfully and the future will take care of itself.
