Oh I completely agree that it isn't the best approach and I agree that life is happening in the moment. However, living in the moment when you are in a terrible situation is rough. In the moment, depression and suicide seem like a good idea, but that is probably not a good move (not that this is a problem for me). But living in the immediate moment certainly will help any depression of what could be. Enjoying the smell of your environment or taking in nature certainly prevent you from thinking of your terrible living situation.
