“Reflect upon your present blessings,
of which every man has plenty; not on your past misfortunes of which all men
have some.”
It is so easy to live in the past, dwelling on " could'ves, should'ves, would'ves" while ignoring all that is good right now. So easy to replay that same old loop over and over again - reliving past pain, opportunities missed, or perceived injustices. So easy to live in the mind, ignoring the present, unaware of the gentle breeze, the warm sun, the delicious aroma of fresh baked bread.... locked in our minds replaying past scenarios. We need to live in the moment, be aware and conscious of all that is, to be thankful for our blessings.
