Regrets?

[isis]

Its interesting to note that in both of those examples, one is in the past or the future, not in the present moment.

That is a great point Matt1.  The past is the source of regret, and the future the source of anxiety.  The NOW is where the peace is, ala Eckhart Tolle.  Thanks for the reminder, I needed that.

I feel that thinking about the past & future, more often than not, enriches my now rather than causes me to not be in it.

I love thinking about funny things from my past. I've witnessed some hilarious things. Often times I burst out laughing when reminiscing. It's always kind of awkward when someone asks me what's funny when that happens. I've gotten to where I usually just say, "Thinking about something that happened a long time ago." & I love thinking about the future bc there's so many positive & uplifting possibilities to look fwd to.
