Thought Of The Day...

We cannot change our past. We can not change the fact that people act in a certain way. We can not change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude...

The truth is that most of us these days have a past that has shaped our present and most likely our futures.  They say, you have to know the past to understand the present.  Looking back, I sometimes ask myself if I would have done certain things differently?  Would I go back into time if I could and change certain events?  This I will never know, but every once in a while I drift into a place where my mind takes over and I just wonder what if..."What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment. And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. Right now"  If I were to change my past, I would have missed out on a life with Arvid and Brutus.....Not an option.  I am happy with it and with my choices.  Some events have been difficult and some maybe could have been done differently, but now it's part of me and part of my life...

I love these quotes from a site called Positive Outlook.
Saw this one on Facebook and decided to use it. Hope you like it as much as I do.
  Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future....The past is behind, learn from it. The future is ahead, prepare for it. The present is here, live it...
until next time...
