I've been accused of derailing conversations too often, so now I'll just talk to myself. You can listen in if you want. Just don't interrupt. It could be hazardous.
People talk about thoughts as being trains. As in "I've just lost my train of thought." I think my train has been lost for a long, long time. But that's what makes life interesting. People today are so wrapped up in tomorrow that they can't see today. "Live for the moment" has become "Live for tomorrow." Not that there's anything wrong with tomorrow. But you see, we don't live in tomorrow. We live in today. If we're always thinking about tomorrow, then we miss today. And today is a lot better than people think it is.
And that's another thing. So many people complaining about how today is affecting tomorrow. But they won't do anything about it. They make plans to do things... tomorrow. They talk about a better future. Well my question is, what about a better today? It's the little things that count really. Not organizing a huge rally for the rainforest's, or boycotting gas prices for one day. We have do to something today, everyday. You can't treat life's problems like so many people treat church. Go on a Sunday, and forget about it for the rest of the week. You have to live it. Sure, it's difficult. Buy hey, that's life. Easy is boring. Boring is something I can't deal with. Difficult is a challenge. I can handle a challenge. And hey, no matter how bad it gets, there's always tomorrow, right? ;)
