Here are some thoughts that I had just now while reading this thread. These are just spur of the moment thoughts so bear with me and feel free to point out any goofiness in my thinking.
I think that living in the moment is a matter of perspective. When you consider things from the limited perspective of your 3D mind/body/spirit complex you can have thoughts like "Oh I will never have that much fun again," or "this is the worst thing that will ever happen to me," or "I am never going to be able to experience that thing that I want." However, if you take the perspective that your soul is eternal and that the all moments are simultaneous then all of those thoughts transform and suddenly you can trust that those joyous moments are always there, just as those bad experiences are always there and that you will always be experiencing what you desire at some point in your journey. You can trust that all of those things will be experienced at some point and just stop focusing on them and let things come as they may, understanding that what happens now is what is meant to be happening now . . . like you can trust that your higher self knows what it is doing as it lays the road down in front of you and stop worrying about it and just have love and gratitude for being able to have the experience.
When bad things are happening to you, torture or rape or what have you, if you can take your perspective out of the limited 3D view then perhaps you can realize that you and your torturer may have agreed to do this before you incarnated in order for you both to have this experience and learn from it. It may sound callous or insensitive, but perhaps you are allowing yourself to have this experience in order to realize that perhaps we need not do these things anymore. In this case the love in the moment may be the caring love of the soul and the planetary consciousness teaching itself, allowing us to process these experiences and work through them together so that we can choose whether we want to continue them or not, allowing us to progress into a more loving way of life.
