If you could choose to live in the future, past or present, which one would you choose? I think that I would have to stick with the present. I would want to stay in the present because I have two lil guys and I wouldn’t want to rush their ‘growing up’. I also have my own aspirations and so much more that I have to learn as well as things that I want to learn. I just wouldn’t want to get there. The past has helped me become who I am today. It may have screwed me up a little bit but I’m here.
My past was very interesting. I had a great time discovering my self sort to speak. I’ve also met some good people. I experienced life the way that I have seen in movies and read about in books. I’ve put myself in situations that could have cost me my life but I survived. In most cases street smarts always beat book smarts. Now would I want to experience them again? Maybe. I’d just want to go back to specific moments. I wouldn’t want to re-live all.
Again, I wouldn’t want to go to the future because I don’t want to miss a day of my lil guys growing up. So living in the present is good enough for me. It gives me something to look forward to in the future.
