Many tend to overlook the importance of "now" because they are too busy planning for tomorrow - for later. However, how sure can they be that there is going to be a 'later'? Besides, what does 'later' actually mean? Is it the next hour, day, month, year, decade? How do they know? They can only guess or, rather, hope. If you take a moment to reflect upon this, you realize how human beings seem to prefer fantasizing, making plans, arranging situations in their minds, and neglect to assess what they are presently experiencing. If everyone were aware that this very instant is the only one that really exists, greater attention would be given to the way such instant is lived. Through such awareness, there would be no regrets because every word or action would be carefully weighed before being expressed. The word "awareness", in fact, may be interpreted as a sort of deep knowledge of what is actually happening, right now. More 'focus' would yield more satisfactory results. Could there be a better way to move through life?
