I'd like to meet:
Who are you?
There are five types of people in this world.
Those who live in the past.
Those who live for the present and those who look to the future.
Then there are those who use a combination of two of the three and those who struggle through life to balance out all three.
Those who live in the past... well you know the type.Always talking about how it used to be "back in the days".Can't accept change because things were just fine "the way they used to be".These people are generally thought of as having been left behind, so to speak.With such a longing for the past that it in turn causes a disdain for the present associating this sort of attitude with negative tones.
Then there are those who live for now.They see it.They want it and probably will get it depending on how well their naturally aggressive tactics work on their poor victims.An opportunist for example.Typical of leaving their pasts behind them, they usually have a disregard for whatever consequences lie in the future for whatever their actions today.
Last but certainly not least you have your dreamers, who are always looking ahead to a bright future refusing to see the present and literally forgetting the past.Mostly optimistic in their total outlook of life.Daydreamers...
Of course you can have someone living for now, looking ahead to the future and forgetting about their past.Even a person living in the past who looks forward to dying to be gone from the present and those aware of their present but can't leave the past behind them.
The fifth type of person, the one who balances all three, is the one most likely to be succesful in whatever their endeavor.Looking to their past to know where they're at, seeing a clear picture of where they're headed.These are the type of people who i'd like to meet.
Please read the blogs and add your comments.

...The world was thinking wrong about racism because it did not know.The ultimate evil was ignorance and it's child stupidity.The cure for it was knowledge based on study.

GOD'S MAN
God's man is true to himself, for if he is not then to whom can he be truly true to,and alas, ultimately, without others...what would it truly mean to be truly alive..
