Don't Stop Now

You may find yourself stopping every once and awhile and reflecting on the past. You want to make sure that you didn't leave anything behind. You can't stop the "what ifs" from popping up in your mind? You spend so much time looking at what has passed that you find yourself missing what is going on right now. It's so easy to forget that there is so much ahead of you when you relive the past over and over again. Somehow it never gets any better no matter how much you go over it. Looking back with regrets prevent you from see the picture clearly. You forget all the special moments that made you who you are today. By being present today, you may have a better appreciation of what you've experienced and the blessings you have. Now is the time to continue on your journey with anticipation  that opportunities are waiting just around the corner. Don't stop in your pursuit of your heart's desire. 
See the miracles that are right in front of you...

(I can see where a person could live with regrets but what good is that. If regrets could change the life of someone to do better or to help others than I say go at it. But regrets are only that. Feeling sorry for myself over 15 minutes doesn't do any good. 15 minutes that was a random time. Let's make it 5. As you can see I don't do regrets very well. I tend to move on.)
