Rewind, Pause or
Forward....if you could change anything in your life, which button would you
press?
My past has shaped
my present. My past is behind me,
already lived through and hopefully filled with memories to keep me
thoughtful. My past was a gas! I have been honored to meet so many diverse
personalities. Those very personalities
make me as thoughtful of others or self centered, kind or unkind, using or
simply manipulative. Shaping my present,
the past was as event filled as I had time and energy to fill it.
My future will also
be shaped by my past, however I am obligated to put aside old prejudices in an
effort to have the best most rewarding future I can possibly attain. It is filled with the purple mist of magical
imagination. I aspire to fill my future
with glad tidings and shout a joyful noise.
My present. I would pause my present. I would push that pause button to be able to
examine all aspects of today. Every word
anyone spoke to me. Every emotion behind
the words. I would hug each and every one
of my friends and relatives, even if they didn't want it. Every glance, smile,
frown, grimace that fills today! I would
pause it all to enjoy at length.

Interesting prompt. The past certainly does affect the future. I'm not sure if I'd go backwards or forwards, but I certainly wouldn't pause.
