The Past, The Present And The Future

What you have just read, that is the past. What you are reading now, that is the present and what you are going to be reading Next, that is going to be the future.

And what am I going to write next? You will never know until you read on. Are you interested to read on and find out?

It is just this simple and this is how life has always been. What the future will bring, nobody knows and it is for you to find out.

You see. Life has always been a journey. To embark on this journey, you have to know where you are heading for. And where to be heading next? You have to ask yourself at this very present now and when you eventually get to where you want to be, you ask yourself again where you are going to head next and the next and so on.

Just think about it. You are here right now (The Present) all because of what you have done in the past. Your past leads to your present now and your present will lead you to your future. This is the way of life. Perhaps you might not have really thought about this. But since you are here now, why not just ask yourself. Are you happy with things right now? Are you satisfied with what you have at this present?

Great if you are happy. If this is what you want, keep moving on. Enjoy your journey! But if you are not, what are you going to do about it? What are you going to do to make your journey an enjoyable one?

Now, life certainly isn’t a short journey. I don’t suppose you would want to move on aimlessly not knowing where to go? Without any proper plans and direction, you will just end up getting more lost in life. And nobody but only you yourself knows what you best want for yourself in life.

But remember this. In this long journey, there is bound to be obstacles and challenges you will face. But it is with surprises that make life interesting?

When watching a movie, it is all those unexpected twist and plots that make you want to keep following and to find out how the show will end? Life can be just like a movie too. Don’t you want to find out how you, this leading role in your movie will be at the end of the show? Or rather, you are actually the scriptwriter, the director and the very actor. You decide and run the whole show.

At the end of the day, what matters is you enjoy this very journey of yours.

Think of it this way. It is just like planning a holiday for yourself. What may be fun for some may not just be fun for everyone. Some prefer the shopping type holiday while some prefer the scenic type, to be in touch with the great Nature.Which do your prefer? You decide and plan for yourself what would be a fun and enjoyable journey for you and you do what you like. It is only when you enjoy your journey will you always have something to look forward to in life, isn’t it?

And that is exactly what you should be doing. Life is a journey and not a destination. There is still so much more waiting for you to explore. Where would be the final destination of life? Nobody knows but one definite thing for so, no way it is going to be here (The present)

Explore on. Create that future for yourself…
