People are always saying to stay in the moment.

And they are right. If you can stay in the moment you are always better off. Feel everything right now.

It is really a difficult task though. I practice it everyday, for years now, and more often than not I come up short.

I wake up in the morning sometimes crushed by the past. The destruction, the failed relationships, the messy endings, the rehabs and all the near misses.

Or worried about the future. Is everything going to be OK? How will it be OK? Are my teeth falling out? Do these jeans make my ass look huge? Are there termites in my foundation? Was that a rat I saw in the living room last night? Are the bills late? Will I get cancer? When will I get cancer?

More and more though, the days get easier, the days get better.
