Don’t Mourn For the Past


Motivational Power Quote

Don’t Mourn For the Past
“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for
 the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate
troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.”
Buddha

As I see it . . . . . . .

Don’t mourn for the past

Those who mourn the past are letting today slip away . . . .  and losing sight of their future.

The days of your past are in the history book of your life . . . . Your past is a series of life experiences . . . . And you will carry your life experiences with you into the future . . . .

You can’t relive the past . . . .

You will be able to draw on your life experiences to help you to shape your future and to be better informed to guild your future decision making.

Live within your day . . . . Don’t mourn for the past. Make today a positive stepping stone into your future. Your positive days will accumulate to create forward momentum  . . . . to keep you moving in the right direction.

Motivational Power Quote

Have the Imagination of a Child
“One of the virtues of being young is that you don’t let the facts
get in the way of your imagination.”
Sam Levenson 1911 – 1980, American Author

As I see it . . . . . . .

Have the imagination of a child

Our childhood was a wonderful time in our life . . . . and our imagination was in full bloom . . . .  and everything seemed possible.

We played games for hours . . . . and when we didn’t have a game . . . . we made up our own games.

It was a great time before electric games . . . . and the games were played outside.

One of the games we played was called kick the can . . . .

All you needed was a least 2 kids a can . . . . a small area to play in and a can. The can was used like a soccer ball and you get points for hitting a goal or a target.

The games where very competitive . . . . when there were enough kids you could play elimination games . . . . and like with like any other games there was a championship game.   

As children we used our imagination and occupied ourselves . . . . There was very little money growing up in the intercity . . . . There imagination, enthusiasm and everyday was a new adventure.

Have the imagination of a child . . . . and you will never grow old.
