I let my mind take a little stroll down the memory lane. Not too far away, just a few years back. Things were so different back then. So different that they showed no clues nor signs that the present would be painted this way.
Some things I wish I never did so, but if I did not, I wouldn’t have what I have now. I wouldn’t have met the people I know now. But if things were different then I would not lose the people I knew back then.
I guess right now I’m feeling a mixture of gratefulness and regret. Grateful for what I have today, regretful for what I have lost.
There is a saying…
"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment."
My present. Teddy. College. Scholarship. Oakey.
My past. Disfigured. Blurry. Dark. Uncertainty.
Clearly, the present is much better. I have everything I ever wanted now. So why the desire to wander down the memory lane?
Another saying…
"The past is behind, learn from it. The future is ahead, prepare for it. The present is here, live it."
So I should cast the past aside, cling on to the present and be ready for the future.
What is the future? At the moment, it is pitch black. Light shall shed bit by bit and more of the future shall be revealed. But when does it stop? It is a perpetual process. Never stopping to wait for you to catch up. Yes, I should prepare for it.
Hence, goodbye Past! Hi Present! I’ll be looking forward to seeing you Future!

Now that was a weird post eh? Reading it now, I think it’s a little bit odd but still okay I suppose.
Mmm it’s late here. I promised Teddie I’ll be going to bed already. He’s waiting for me to join him…well in Dreamland. Lol.
Goodnites.
