Half of our lives are gone by looking at the past which is full of memories regardless of whether they are good or bad or whether we are happier looking at it or just regret it. Another half is spent looking for the future, imagining it, trying to correct it even when what we need to correct is the present. The future can wait. The present can't. It won't take much time to become past. The thing is we have never really lived in the present but have always imagined the future. We've spent our whole lives stuck in a maze, thinking how we'll escape it one day, and how awesome it will be and imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it. You just use the future to escape the present but if you hadn't imagined it, you would never have gotten anywhere at all. You think you sometimes don't get it while in real, you never get it at all. That's the whole point.
