Meaning
This reads as a warning against borrowing trouble from the future. It suggests that anticipation can steal the sweetness of what is happening now, especially when a coming task or worry starts overshadowing today. In everyday life, it lands when someone is already tense about the calendar and needs reminding that the present deserves its own attention.
