Do Not Confuse The Present With The Past

Simone de Beauvoir said, 'We must not confuse the present with the past.
With regard to the past, no further action is possible.'

That is why you don't have to worry about it. It is gone forever.
You can't live in the past anymore. You can't grow in the past.
You can't love in the past. You can't be happy in the past.
You can't develop yourself in the past.
You can't do anything worthwhile in the past.

The only thing you can do to improve your life is to focus 
on what is going on right now, this moment.

This moment is very important. Everything that you have been looking
for is happening right where you are.
But if you do not pay attention to it, you won't see it.

And if you do not know what is happening right now, 
you can't create a better tomorrow.
Why is that? Because you need today to create tomorrow.
Without today's information, tomorrow won't happen. 

So to create a better tomorrow, to live in the present,
you must know what is going on around you. 

And do not forget to:
'Fight today for a better tomorrow.'

This Is Where You Should Be

Your future is important. But will you commit yourself, your soul
to living it in the moment?
Will you commit to facing your life. If so, then here is what
Prem Rawat said about living our lives in the moment.
He said, "All our lives are lived in today. Right now. This second.
And this second. We can't live in yesterday, we can't live in tomorrow.
Besides, today is where the magic happens. Today is the place we can truly
feel peace, joy, and love. It is where you should be: present in the present.
To experience today, we need to remove yesterday and tomorrow,
and then we are left with what is real."

And that is today. And that is now. Today is real. 
If you are not living it, then you are missing out. 
That does not mean you should forget about your future.
Do not forget your future. but focus on what is 
happening around you right now, this moment, today.
Because if you focus too much on what is going to happen
tomorrow, you will miss what is happening right now.
And your tomorrow depends on what you are doing 
right now.
Focus on tomorrow, but enjoy today.
