How many of us are guilty of living in the past? Some spend their whole lives trying to live in the past and others only brief moments. Our lives are right now, right this moment.
We should look to the past only to learn from the mistakes we have made and the lessons we have learned. We then apply this knowledge to the present (present has also been defined as a gift).
We may also look briefly to the past in consideration of fond memories and pleasant occurrences. These brace us to face some of the unpleasantries we often face. This should only be used as a tool to help us get past current difficulties, and not as an anchor which keeps us ete
ally in the past.
We may consider life as a constantly flowing river. The waters of that river never pass the same spot twice. They are always passing something new, and never return to that which they have already passed.
Living in the past is comparable to living in a sealed pond, where there is no influx of fresh waters. The pond becomes stagnant and covered with scum. Our lives are the same when we insist on living in the past.
We need a constant inflow of new ideas and circumstances to stay fresh and continue our growth. Even thought some of these new ideas and circumstances my prove painful, they are essential in our development. When we cease to grow and change, we cease to live life to the fullest.
And...Who wants to be stagnant? nnn

“Weight-Train” Your Brain
I have a new cell phone. I didn’t want a new cell phone; I was perfectly happy with my 2020 cell phone, but it wasn’t happy with me. Its connector charging port was ailing. Failing, actually, the service tech told me. And besides, it was an old phone, what did I expect? Old? This to a woman who is more than content, read “thrilled,” to wear outdated fashions just because she likes them. And would willingly keep computers way past their supposed “shelf life.” Sigh. OK, fine,
