Quote by David Russell

The present is a point just passed.

The present is a point just passed.

Summary

This quote suggests that the present moment is fleeting and constantly moving. It implies that as soon as we become aware of the present, it has already transitioned into the past. Like a point in time thatâ€™s just passed, the present is ephemeral and can slip away quickly. It serves as a reminder to cherish and fully experience the present moment because it is ever-evolving and can never be truly held onto.
