Looking Forward

How many people can honestly say they are living in the now? How many "living in the now" moments do you have in a day? In a week?

Most of the time we're busy looking forward to something. The next vacation...the end of the work day...that first beer of the night...the new DVD coming from Netflix. Something.

Or we're thinking about something that has already passed. Last night's great sex...a killer concert...the last vacation...that thing you said to your son that you really wished you hadn't said and would take back if you had a chance to relive that moment.

Hopes. Regrets. Joys. Heartbreaks.

Does the present even exist?
