No, the point is that if you look at each day, each moment right now, instead
of trying to project too far, you will be living for right now.
It's much better to say "just for tonight" and approach this very moment as
the only one that matters.
It's very Zenlike that way.

"The sun is shining--the sun is shining. That is the magic. The flowers are
growing--the roots are stirring. That is the magic. Being alive is the
magic--being strong is the magic The magic is in me--the magic is in
me....It's in every one of us."
----Frances Hodgson Burnett
