I've decided that it's nearly impossible to live totally in the here and now. A lot of us, myself included, love to say that we live in the now. Maybe for the most part that's true. We go on day by day having as much carefree fun as we can, living each day up because our days are limited....but our minds will not let us simply live in the now. We constantly dream up scenarios for our futures. We hope that this or that will happen, or that we will be here or there. We try desperately to only think of the now...whether its because we're afraid of what the future holds...or because we know what's going to end, I can't be sure. But we can't just live in the now. Our minds won't let us. We can't fear the future, but we can live in the now. Our minds will wander to the future, but we can't stop that. Minds will wander and thoughts will form. Dreams will be dreamt and that's a well known fact. We don't dream about the now, we dream of the future. Let it happen. Live for now and accept that the future is uncertain. Life is good. I'm happy.
