noooooo im talking about your comment "why can't it be about just having fun and not thinking about anything but the present?"

that style of thinking is an idea the western world want to get into our heads! It's fine its cool yeah BUUUUTTT there is a limit to it; when you start focusing on the present too much you will become materialistic for example wanting the latest fashions, latest phones, latest cars, etc. Whereas if you think about the future more you present will tend to be more simple and you'll be more satisfied with a simple life! I learnt that jsut recently; I'm barely going out these days with my friends to avoid spending money so I can save up and honestly I'm happy in my life right now; very simple: I go uni then work then go home study then sleep and thats my routine. Its only like this because I'm 20 and I need to be like this now so I can have a secure future :D

Sorry if I talk too much I just have a really strong opinion about this topic! :)
