Staying in the present is hard. The future always looms over us, shaping our state of mind. We can endure a bad day if we believe better times are ahead, but it’s impossible to enjoy today when we know the future looks bleak.

Uncertainty is even worse. Not knowing what’s coming leaves us stuck between hope and fear. The mind searches for answers, but when it finds none, all that remains is anxiety. Maybe the key isn’t ignoring the future but accepting that we will never have full control over it.
