It's funny how things just pop up. A $20 bill you left in your jacket pocket from last winter, the stupid name and number of a person or place that you were looking for last week, an old friend you meet again. Timing I think plays an important part in things. If throughout your life you can go back and adjust the time so that you knew than what you know now, or forward time so that an oppurtunity comes quicker or perhaps freeze time to enjoy something you once had, that much longer. As we've been told "you can't live in the past" so forget it! Live for today. You will never see what happens tomorrow. It will always be tomorrow!
As time passes people change, situations change, life changes, views & attitudes change, apearances. . etc What happened yesterday was yesterday, I am not the same person I was. More life was lived, interaction, communication, information learned or passed was had. I again grew. Talk to me today and see who I am. See if you have noticed a change. Am i wiser, softer, happier, angrier, smarter?
Treat your days with a lot more thought and care. If today was your last day would you really care your cousin upset you 2 years ago and you miss him and want to say good bye, or sorry or that you love them and you can't over a silly arguement or mistake. Do what you feel, swallow that pride for once. Forgive & live. Make your life happy. It's yours! You're the one living it everyday. Change things to make you more comfortable. Do all you can. Be your best and do your best! Live now, live today because that is all you are going to ever have!
Live neither in the past nor in the future, but let each day's work absorb your entire energies, and satisfy your widest ambition.
~Sir William Osler (1849 - 1919), to his students
