Is there any difference between "Live the moment" and "Live IN the moment"?
Thank you.

teal lime "Live the moment" This is the kind of bad English you see on "inspirational" plaques you are supposed to hang on your wall. The plain meaning is an imperative sentence with "live" in a transitive use, the use you see in "live your life". "The moment" is nebulous, and you can plug in any moment you like.
