Look around yourself, talk to your friends. Most people will have a bucket list, plans, savings, and so on for the future. Pick a newspaper, and you will find a section with future in stock tips and horoscopes. The same applies to business; everything is driven by future targets and milestones.
What do we observe? We are a civilization living in the future. Every other advertisement talks about making you better < of course, after you pay for the product, in the future>
The world of ours is to live moment to moment. It is about being here now, making the most of it. What have we ended up with? A world towards a better future, at least assured to have a protected future.
Our life is simple. We have to live in every breath of it. If we start leaving so much of it for the future, who are we now?
