DON’T LIVE IN YOUR PAST
There aint nothin’ like going down memory lane.
Going into your closet and grabbing the dusty photo album with all the pictures from
back in the day,
Looking over some old love notes your high school girlfriend or boyfriend wrote you,
Watching embarassing family videos you swore you would never show anyone.
Ahh. The good ol’ days, right?
Refelecting on the past is what a lot of us do.
It helps us remember who we WERE.
But, sometimes, it contributes to us forgetting who we ARE.
Some people live so deep in their past,
that they don’t WANT their lives they have TODAY.
“I was a high school football star–I wish I could go back”
“I want to go back to my young years when I was pretty”
Don’t say words like those.
That time has passed.
Those were memories you created THEN.
Now, you have another opportunity to create MORE MEMORIES!
BETTER MEMORIES!
The best years of your life are still ahead of you!
Here’s a suggestion:
Go drive to the mountains, play in the snow, and take pictures!
Write a love note to your friend, just for fun!
Seek adventures that will give you a story to tell!
Don’t live in the dream of your past,
But be awake in your TODAY,
And Look forward to your tomorrow!
