You cannot live life
Looking to the Past
Or gazing at the Future
Brief glimpses are fine
But you must live life
Moment by Moment.

Whatever you do in life
Never anchor your gaze
in either the
Far-Gone Past
Or the Far-Ahead Future.
Live life Moment by Moment.

Moments pass.
Watch them all.
Don't ignore
what happens now.
Look at life
Moment by Moment.

Glimpse at the Past
To know what you've lost, what you've gained.
Glimpse at the Future
To learn what you must lose, what you must gain.
But look at life
Moment by Moment.
