Hindsight is very revealing for improving on one's journey & prospects. It teaches us what works, what doesn't & something not talked about enough i.e. ignorance of the self. Stop to consider your journey from (?) up until the now (reading this). Not only is it remarkable, but it was unplanned. We were a part of the past while journeying to the present, but we did not know that until revealed afterwards. Why? We lived that prior life thus revealing its history not just existed in it
THE TRUTH of the MATTER
Let's start out by putting in its place, the clever lie that makes the rounds & disrupts if we let it. Should have, could have & would have will now be brought into the light of exploration (reality). Why? For a very good reason that will follow
TAKE THE MOMENT YOU ARE IN RIGHT NOW.
You are exactly where you want to be! It is as simple as that. If you got up from your chair, or walked across the room, that's where you would be if you did that. In other words, wherever you go, there you are! There is no such thing as REGRET
WORTHY NOTE: The NOW is more important than we give credit for. It is your yesterday yet to be, being formed, but forms with every millisecond. Mind boggles
FURTHER TAKE THIS MOMENT
Who is stopping you from doing anything right here, right now? Leave out blame, excuses & stories to the contrary. You see, if you let it, you will lie to yourself about the "what could have been" & "why didn't I" nonsense. Apply it now to test it
DIDN'T SEIZE THE MOMENT?
I have had a few (?) of those (LOL) for what they are. Lack of courage, conviction, ignorance, fear, doubt, hesitation & confusion went to work on me (you too), & had their way. There can only be so many of those dynamics until you wake-up & do something about it, again, demonstrating your ability to do or not do
THE PERSON I WILL BE TOMMORROW COMES FROM TODAY
As we go, we learn. It cannot be helped or hindered. All life that we know or don't know operates on this principle i.e. it is alive, wants to thrive, & survive & it does. We get to control more outcomes than an amoeba, lizard or elephant. It is inherent
YESTERDAYS PERSON IS HERE NOW BUT TOMMORROW IS NOT
Look at yourself & behold the truth. Why? It will not only set you free & make best friends with you but will also make for a good guide if we allow. What was is gone, what is here, should be respected & our walk for tomorrow, let's see what happens
LET'S RECOUNT THE STAGES
Between birth & 10 years old, we only know to come & go, liking what we do or don't, & being no smarter than that age will allow. No one can force this either. Let's take between 10 & 20 years old. We rose to the occasion; it didn't lower itself. From 20-30, 30-40 & so on all operate on submitting to you themselves i.e. to do with as you please. Turn it up or down, you are living it & it is subtle as it passes too
MENTORING, GUIDING & BEING TOLD
Here is what I learned: I can take a teen, young adult or an adult & give them excellent feedback & input influencing them for the better if they allow it. In my case, there was no one to initiate, to alter my course, so it just played out. Imagine if that direction was grafted into my journey? Now consider if you had input & rejected it? Oh my! But reality says: it's done & it's gone. Learn & continue
LIFE WHILE MYSTERIOUS IS FAIR
If you disagree, then are you promoting death was better? Countless chances keep visiting with us, without the asking, to give opportunity & betterment. Life does throw in a wild card i.e. time only so you respect the system at play here
SIMPLICITY LOVES YOU
Thinking, dreaming, regrets, fantasizing & not acting your age disrespects your now, (the present), which is all that counts regardless of who you are, what you did or didn't do. Be grateful for your turn & not so much on how you didn't capture it all. Who did/does? Acceptance of the greater systems at work makes them watch over you here & now & into the beyond. Let it be so
