We are all part of a race to secure our future in a way or the other. A race driven by dreams and passions. Mistakes of the past remind us of our drawbacks and the urge to build a pleasant tomorrow rectifies the errors of the yesterday. The present is just a fraction of a second which becomes the past in the very next second. As the old saying goes, time waits for none and all we have in hand is that fraction of a second. All that we do in the present is to have a pleasant future which soon becomes part of the past as tomorrow is always the day after tomorrow’s yesterday.
There is hardly any living in the present as it all takes a wink of an eye for it to merge with the past. Even when most of the people proudly say, “I am happy that I have lived all my life without being bothered about the past or future”, get attached to the past that very moment. Mostly the justification of living in the present that we give for most of our actions is for the happiness and satisfaction that we would get years down the line while recollecting the days we spent. We continuously sow seeds for a fruitful tomorrow and nurture it with dreams and expectations. All of us fall prey to this running race at some point of life because at night we close our eyes with the hope to see the next day’s rising sun. It is never a mistake as this is how the journey of life is.
