I need to stop looking back
Is it just me or does it seem that we don't appreciate the times in our life until they pass?
When I was in my early 20's I missed High School but when I was in High School, I could not wait to graduate. I did not enjoy the time for what it was worth at that moment. It was not until later that I looked back and missed the enjoyment that I took all for to much granted.
I am always looking back. "Those were the days".
My wife even does it, she will say something like, " Remember when were dating? Those were good old days."
It is almost as if I am walking through life backwards. Instead of looking forward to exciting new adventures, I look backwards reflecting on different times, all of the which I took for granted at their moments.
Why can I get it at the moment I live it?
