It scares me to think about the future, to think about where I'll be in ten years, even to think about what will happen after high school. I think too much about what's going to happen and not enough about what is happening so I think that this quote from Einstein is something that I should introduce into the way I think about things. Every moment that passes was once the future and now it's gone, so why not just live in today instead of stressing about tomorrow.
Mitch, don't be afraid... you've got some great skills and good friends to help you face the future. I do believe you're right to avoid letting worries about what might happen spoil your enjoyment of the present.
ReplyDeleteYou were supposed to identify who said the quote. I know it is tempting not to when it is such a well known individual.
