The now is perfectly fine for the hermit, but being aware of time is necessary to mesh with others, with society. Who hasn't said I was so intrigued/entertained/engrossed I lost track of time. Fun for you but annoying to people relying on you, or to yourself if there's other things you want to accomplish.
OK, all that was the train of though responding to the word Time.
---------------------------------------------------------------
The word Now, as live in the now, do it now, is plastic, always in context.
Don't wait until you're 60 to start saving for retirement, do it now.
If we don't leave now, we'll be late for the curtain.
Rather than trimming those bushes in the fall, I should do it now.
Those are three distinctly different nows, and that muddies the issue.
