The one day I looked up at our new clock on the wall that had the words - cherish yesterday, live today, and dream tomorrow on it. Now this is like most of those special meaningful things you put on your wall in the bathroom to ponder on. These sayings don't typically seem to make much of a difference. However, when I thought about this one I found out that I either replay the past in my mind or think about what the future could be. Rarely do I "live today" and make the most of the time I have. I don't know if this is a dissatisfaction with how I am living my life or what. However, if it is the case that I don't like how my life is, umm I should change it.
Switchfoot's song - This is Your Life -
Yesterday is a wrinkle on your forehead
Yesterday is a promise that you've broken
Don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes
This is your life and today is all you've got now
Yeah, and today is all you'll ever have
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
This is your life, are you who you want to be?
This is your life, are you who you want to be?
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be?
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose
We shouldn't relive the past so much that we never now where we are now and we should never look to the future so much that you forget what you need to face now. You are living in the present. You can learn from the past and see what might be good to go for in the future, but don't forget to apply it to your life now.
The past is the past you can't change it, only remember and learn from it. The future is to come, why worry about it or plan it? Your future is God's plan for you, it will be much better if you live that plan. I don't know about you, but I want God's will to be my path and my goal. And because of that my life will have the greatest profound experience than my own way.
