Time is an illusion. The future and past do not exist. The only moment that exists is now. The present moment is all we have. Many believe that our obsessive worrying about potential future disasters is what causes us to be unhappy. After all, most often, when people really focus on the present moment, they realize that their worries have not materialized. You are here, now, and you are fine. Thus, although the girl in my painting is reflected in the water, the clock she holds is missing its reflection. Time does not exist.
