The Past, The Present and The Future

If you are given a choice between: 1. Going back to the past to right a wrong or 2. Travelling into the future to see a wrong and come back to the present to right it Which choice would you make?

In my humble opinion, it doesn’t matter. The present or the future would still be the same, no matter what we do to try to alter the events that lead to them. To take things into perspective, some years ago I watched a sci-fi program about a group of scientists travelling back to the past to kill Adolf Hitler when he was an infant, with the hope of preventing World War 2 and the atrocities he had perpetrated as the German leader. Through the turn of events, another infant was mistakenly killed. No prize for guessing what happened next; dear Aldolf grew up “to do what he was supposed to do”.

I believe that things happen for a reason; somehow the law of nature has the uncanny knack of making sure that the past, present and future stay the way they should be.

And why worry about going to the future to see what’s going to happen to you. So what if you are miserable or successful then? Either way, you would be miserable when you come back to the present to try to do something to “right the wrong” or constantly reminding yourself not to do something wrong to “jeopardize your bright future”.

We have absolute control of what we can do in the present. By envisioning what we hope to achieve in the future, we do our best now to try to steer ourselves towards our goals. Even in the event that the future does not turn out to be exactly the way we want it to be. We should have no regrets if we’d tried our best.
 
In the present, live life the way we want it to be.  Future is something which should remain unknown to us. Something mysterious and slowly unfolding before our eyes, surprising us once in a while when something unexpected comes along. Imagine already knowing what’s going to happen and taking away all the suspense of discovering life… life would be less interesting isn’t it?
 
Take stock of the past. Take precautions for the future. Take control of your life now. Don’t look back into the past. Don’t fear what the future might bring. Don’t let the present slip away.. from our own hands.

I will remember you..

Lyrics | Amy Grant lyrics - I Will Remember You lyrics

I will be walking one day
Down a street far away
And see a face in the crowd and smile
Knowing how you made me laugh
Hearing sweet echoes of you from the past
I will remember you.
Look in my eyes while you're near
Tell me what's happening here
See that I don't want to say good-bye
Our love is frozen in time
I'll be your champion and you'll be mine
I will remember
I will remember you.

Later on
When this fire is an ember
Later on
When the night's not so tender
Given time
Though it's hard to remember darlin'
I will be holding
I'll still be holding to you
I will remember you.

So many years come and gone
And yet the memory is strong
One word we never could learn
Good-bye
True love is frozen in time
I'll be your champion and you'll be mine
I will remember you
So please remember
I will remember you
I will remember you
I will remember you
I will remember you.
