There are three (3) types of people in this world. The Past, The Present and The Future.
The Past people are the type of people who thinks that the “back then” was always better than now. These people have a strong resistant to change. They like songs of the past, like songs of the 70’s, 80’s and the 90’s more than Lady Gaga, Kelly Clarskon, Paramore, Black Eyed Peas and the like. Classic Rolls Royce would be there taste compared to fire red Ferrari. These people tend to work hard to redeem themselves from unfavorable circumstances in the past. Every decission, every move, is meant to mend something in the past. They also bank on working hard to achieve something they had in the past; maybe lost or something that they want to keep because it brings them joy and happiness, and bring it to 'present time'
The Present people are the ones living in the “now”. These people savor every moment they have. These people can mostly be seen chewing there food as slowly as they can. Making sure that they lather the food all over their mouth making sure that they get to savor every bit of taste the food has. They tend to eat in little bits rather than big chunks. There is no need to rush since the only time is now and will forever live in “now”. They regard every second as a blessing, worthy of every bit of attention for they will never be able to experience the same even if they get to live again. Every breath is worth taking time to inhale and exhale. Every scent is worth the time comprehending and enjoying especially if it’s a sweet scent of flowers from your very own garden in the backyard.
The Future person is the person who looks ahead. His decisions are mostly in anticipation of something much bigger and greater in the future. These are, most of the time, the hard driven people. Career is important since it will distinguish who they will be and what they have in the future. Time seems to pass by so quickly; so many things to do with so little time, or at least that is how they see it.
So which are you?? ^_^

Hi terrence! Well, your description of the past sounds like a concept called "fixation". A very inspiring way to describe a phlegmatic life in the present where one enjoys everything as it is right now and deal with troubles day-by-day. For the future, if I may add my thjoughts, it's not the present that affects it but it's how you envision the future that affects yor present.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the thoughts. :-)
