Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why?

View all responses

I think most about the future. The past is already done. There’s nothing I can do to change it. But I can change the problems of the past by learning from them and moving forward in life.

The past then becomes my schoolroom to learn from my mistakes and decide what I can do to change unwanted patterns and bad habits. My future is a blank slate. Everything is in front of me. As an artist with a blank canvas, I can paint my life with good intentions. Whatever mistakes I make today, I can work with tomorrow to change my life for the better. With one difference for tomorrow – I will seek God’s help to make the changes I need to become the better person I want to become.
