oversimplification
[edit]"Its meaning is the philosophy that one should live in the present, without a care for tomorrow." [A] Bit of an oversimplification, surely.
"There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings" [B] - that is an entirely different meaning. If the sense of the aphorism has gradually moved from the original [B] to the current [A] because of misuse, one might at least acknowledge this rather than giving in to the dumbing down.
And the best support for version A is from What Dogs Teach Us about the Kingdom of Heaven? Seriously? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.49.12.43 (talk) 06:39, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
