At the moment

i blog about whatever comes to mind and tonight reading some tweets tonight (and really everyday for that matter) i always notice that people spend a great deal of time thinkin about the past. Neither its reflecting on a situation, reminiscing about a song they here/herd....trending topics on twitter, or something that occurred in the past that preventing them moving forward now (most common from of this is dealing with the opposite sex) Now let me this clear, if you don't learn from your past your going to make the same mistakes..and that will make it twice as hard to progress(ur going to make mistakes regardless so don't worry, you will juss make more) So looking back and reflecting on things that happened is a necessary process. Blocking it out is only a temporally release because eventually it will catch up to you most times. so how ever u deal with it ( assuming you are not crazy) take the time out to do that. But after u have done that, Let it go. Learn from it, and advance. I don't understand how some people are so caught in the past and what happened that they wont allow them selfs to be happy now. There is nothing any of us can do about the past.(i was told time machines don't exist when i wanted to rent one) Another thing is taking so much time to look back, you not pay attention to the present...the moment...the RIGHT NOW!! People (and by people i include myself in this as well) don't give our selfs (or each for the most part) a enough credit. we are looking back or looking forward to what next or better days (the recession didn't help, thanks Bush) that we don't even enjoy right now. For all me and you both know we could both be dead in the next 5 seconds (don't worry we will be fine) Enjoy the moment! i know that easier said than done when bills are due, u dealing with a bullshit job and/or school or lookin for a job. People trippin and pissin you off...it very easy to not appreciate right now. Despite all that shit, juss u have made THIS far. There alot of people who didn't. That in my opinion that is good enough reason to smile n enjoy wherever point u may be at. The future is coming regardless if we here for it or not, so all u can do is plan, and work hard to be prepared for it. The past is juss that your past.Enjoy the NOW . Enjoy life(you only get one apparently). Hopefully you will come to realize that your life or situation isn't that bad and the saying "it could be worse" is a very accurate statement....and as with anything....the choice is yours. You can be paranoid and unhappy if choose. (take that energy and attitude far away from me please) I'll leave you with a quote.....

"One day at a time--this is enough.do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone;and do not be troubled about the future,for it has not yet come. Live in the present,and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering"
