Living in the past

It is common to hear people showing off about their past. I took few moments to think about it and I came to the conclusion that living from the glory of the past while ignoring the current challenges could be a fatal error.

How often do you hear "I remember when I was ..." Often we get trapped by the fact that life has not been very easy on us and we hide behind any success that we may have had in the past. Life is not actually about the past but the present and the future. Like Einstein suggested, there is not enough time to think about the future. Fighting for a successful life has never been easy and will never be easy. Life is to be taken very seriously. I have seen more that one person who have had their life destroyed just because they were holding themselves back on the basic that they have been successful one day. This applies in so many situation. Often Christian live a messy live and remember how life was good when they tried to live according to their principles. it is time for a come back. Life is ahead of us and not behind us. It's time to stop to praise ourselves for the glory of the past and run away from the challenges of life. Have been a good Christian does not mean that you will inherit the Kingdom of heaven, have been a good pianist doesn't mean that you will win the next competition, have been a good footballer does not mean that you will qualify for the next team, have been a scholar does not mean you will discover the next big thing. living life from the past is one of the most dangerous thing i have seen around. I know a friend of mine who use to be slim and nice but it came to a point she put on a lot of weight i mean a lot. it's just very funny to see her showing off with the clothes she had in the past. what about the present.

Living in the past is one of the most dangerous thing i have seen around. It's time for a come back. If you use to be a christian and you were happy to be a christian stand up and fight for it. If you were a scholar, a pianist or whatever else that you really liked, if you would like to enjoy the same happiness, stand and fight. Often we give up. life is not easy and will not get easier. rather, things are getting worse and this applies to every single aspect of life.

The past is gone if you didn't realise it. Wake up and fight for the future as the future is here.
