Food For Thought: We make life about a future that exists only in our imagination and completely miss what’s happening in front of us. We can also say the same thing about our past. Although we might have fond memories that we enjoy revisiting every now and again. We have to learn to accept that once the past is gone, it cannot be changed. We can reconstruct or alter it in our minds.
