Past, Present and Future. Why?

People live either in the Past or in the Future, but rarely in the Present. People are either pining away for something long past, or living for something that hasn't happened yet. Few ever live in the here and now. Why? I don't know really.

I find myself living in the future, always looking for something that hasn't happened yet, and being sad it hasn't happened yet. There are a few times though when I have lived in the present and those times are my best memories. Living in the present, you are able to take in your surrounding more, you are able to enjoy the bird's song more the wind in the trees and the sun on your face. Life is richer when you are able to put things past and things to come behind you and live in and for the things right now.

I pray God will help me to live like that and to trust him about the things to come and I know my life will all the richer for it.
