About This Quote

This quote is about the importance of living in the present. We are often too preoccupied with our future, which means never living in the moment. It can be hard to take time out for ourselves when we are so busy planning out our lives in our minds. We also spend a lot of time worrying about nameless possibilities in our future, but when we do stop and look around us, we realize that all that matters in life is what we have in front of us right now. There is no point in thinking about the past or worrying about the future when it’s not even here yet.
