Enjoy the present, do not live in the past, look forward to the future but most importantly, be present.
We are repeatedly told and showed how much the present is such a gift that should be most cherished, but we never live up to it quite truthfully enough.
What I have to say to that... well... I guess in my opinion, the best way to enjoy the present is to realize what is in front of you, right now, at the moment. You are here while It is, too; same time, same location.
If there is a song playing in the mall, shut your iPod that you can listen whatever day, and listen to the music that runs the ambiance around the mall. If you are on a train or a bus, raise your head from your book and look at the landscapes that are exposed to you like a slideshow.
If it's been 5 years since you seen that family member and he's paying you visit... no matter how tired you are, how wrenched, stone or exhausted, try your best making memories with them before it's too late... you never know what might happen, when will be the next time, or if you'll ever see them again. Living off regrets is just sad... and a searing pain in the ass. Avoid it, if you know you can...
