The Lie We Live - Alan Watts on the Illusion of Time

Time is the greatest illusion we’ve been taught to believe in. We chase the future as if it holds the key, while regretting the past as if it can still be changed. Alan Watts reminds us that life only ever unfolds in this very moment – the present is all we truly have. The “lie we live” is thinking happiness is somewhere else, sometime later, instead of right here, right now. When you free yourself from the illusion of time, you stop waiting to live and start truly living.
