Thought for the day…

One day I’ll wake up and realize that my life wasn’t all I had hoped it would be. Then I’ll look back at all the crazy things that I did and say, “know what, it wasn’t perfect but DAMN was it great!”

I’ve always thought there was no such thing as the present; either you live for the past, or aim for the future; nothing in between. Why you ask? Just think about it: if the future is unpredictable, is the present any different? I mean, the only real thing we’re sure of are what we did in the past… man I hope I aint dumb enough to do that all over again!!!

I gotta start looking ahead. Stop whatever I’m doing now and just think a few years into the future. I’m a year away from my old 5 year goal. Am I any closer to it?? Hell no!!!

3 paragraphs down… So what am I blabbering about? Live without regret… it’s a waste of your time. If you dont like where you are, do something about it. I’m nowhere near my old 5 year goal but that doesn’t stop me. I’m gonna make a new 1 and another 1 after that.

To answer your curiousity, my old 5 year goal was to be a boss (i.e. management). I’m not even a senior but… I have my own car (and I do mean my own! none of that mommy gave me half the money or 60%-40% shit), I am a certified open water diver, I have a PSP and a Nintendo DS Lite, I am a wannabe photographer with a DSLR + 3 lenses, and I’ve LOST 45LBS TO DATE!

Update:

I’ve lost 70 LBS na total and I own 2 Xbox360’s. I know they’re all material objects but I worked hard for them and I’m happy.
