So yes, all we have is now. And what we make of this moment creates that bead that we add to our necklace. Past predicts the future in the present. This is important so I’m going to repeat it: what we do in the present sets our course in life. If we’re anxious now, we create a bead of anxiety. If we do this a lot, we make an anxiety necklace that we wear (sometimes with pride) and take with us wherever we go.
