“True happiness is... to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future ”
— Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Simplified Meaning:
Enjoying life right now is really important. Often, people worry too much about what will happen next, and this can make them stressed and unhappy. For example, imagine you are at a fun party. If you’re always thinking about your big test tomorrow, you won't be able to enjoy the music or your friends. Instead, focus on having a good time at the party. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t study for your test. It just means taking moments to appreciate what you are doing now. This way, you can feel more relaxed and happy, and still take care of your responsibilities when the time comes.
