Between Yesterday and Tomorrow

We live caught between two illusions: a past that no longer exists and a future that hasn't arrived. It's like sitting in a dark room, trying to hold onto shadows — or chasing lights that haven't turned on yet. Returning to the past doesn't take us back. We recreate a new version of it, because we — and everyone in it — have changed. Insisting on reliving it is like trying to hold water in your hands: the more you grasp, the more it slips away. And the future? It exists only in our imagination. Obsessing over it contaminates the only thing we truly have: the present. This isn't resignation. It's recognizing that our real strength lives here and now — in choosing our attitude, in cultivating compassion, in releasing the prison of memories and the tyranny of expectations. Next time your mind traps you in yesterday or tomorrow, come back. Feel your breath. In that small, silent space lies life in its most genuine form. 🕊️ Where does your mind live most — yesterday, or tomorrow?
