There's only the Present Moment!
While's it's tough to get into the habit of living in the Present Moment, we totally miss out on life by spending our time in the regrets of the past, the anxieties of the future.
I am trying hard to master this. The effects are more helpful to me than any medication for anxiety/depression. I keep "falling asleep," drifting between the past and the future, forgetting to stay Present. It takes constant awareness.
