Our life is the moment we live in. It is the sum of every breath we take. Some of us understand this and live rational lives, knowing what we don’t want.
Other kinds of mortals spend their lives thinking about or regretting the past. What to plan for the future comes next. The journey of regret from the past and planning for the future becomes an endless loop. In short, living now and giving the best with what we have never come to them, death comes closer, and they surrender.
