the present
By Mirror Mirror
There's something about living in the now that is so terribly cliche but so important to remember. The things we hold on to tightly, afraid to let go because change scares us. It's the unknown. The unforeseeable. The feeling of being powerless and not in control. We, humans, are possessive creatures by nature. And it's not solely possessions we hoard, it's the things we hold in our heads and our hearts. We often forget to pause, to reflect and to subtract. It's okay to free a little space to make room for happiness, this we need to remind ourselves of.

This reminds me of the message of Pearl Jam's Present Tense. Really good work and always a timely reminder.
