Beauty In The Past, Present & Future

There are so many things that occur in our lifetime. Sometimes we take them for granted as well. We look over little things as they pass by, maybe at the speed of light or even at the slowest of speeds. Whether it's times with loved ones, taking risks or chances, letting go and moving on, or even focusing on yourself.

Life's like a camera, Snapshot moments that are unforgettable. Let them be Black and white or fill them with color.

Ever yday, Every hour, every minute- even every second... something new bypasses us.

Whether it's the sun fading into the sky, or the moon slowly rising to shine bright. We tend to forget that each day is a gift (hence being called the present.)

When we take time to reflect to our past- we tend to see the glimmer of memories- of Ourselves, loved ones, or even other things we tend to not exactly want to see.

Looking into the past is like the mirror- to see what's changed. For better or for worse, you see the many changes made to yourself, others, reasons why you've let go or held on strong. There's so many reasons why things happen. Sometimes they're even explainable.

We may have moments where we cry, because of a lost loved one- Or moments of happiness with learning something new, but they do not define who we are today and whom we are going to become in the future.

You control the path of your life and where YOU want to go.

Take the risks, if they don't go as planned- get up and keep trying. Don't give up so easily, because if you give up you may never know where that path could've taken you.

Follow your dreams for the future- YOU are the only one that can make YOURSELF successful.

People sometimes expect things to be handed to them or just to receive them. It takes hard work, effort, and motivation to do things and accomplish goals. Everyone struggles at their own issues and battles they may face- but again, It's about NEVER GIVING UP.

The future is something to look forward to. You can plan things, along with still being positive and optimistic.

There's so much beauty in all of these things that we do not realize. The little things do matter, because they're the moments that can become the most unforgettable.

You never want to Live in your past- let alone visit your past for a long while. It was put behind you for reasons. Your present is a gift, each and everyday offering new opportunities and chances for adventure. Lastly, the Future is what you make it. Follow your dreams, stay ambitious, and keep making yourself successful.

Cambio

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
