i have been struggling lately to accept the fact that i cannot live in the past nor can i solely focus on the future. and 'struggling' is putting it lightly. let's be honest, right now i am waging world war three with time, and time is winning, seeing as time can't stop and won't stop.
i miss people that are no longer living in the present, but were part of chapters of life in the past. i also dwell on obsessing over all the tiny seemingly insignificant details in my future that i am unsure of. in the meantime i am missing out on all the fun, weird, and unique experience that the present has to offer me.
lately, i have been challenged to live in my present and take life one day at a time, appreciating what my present has to offer me. my heart still aches when i think about the the people and places i miss from my past, but focusing solely on these moments prevents me from falling in love with new experiences.
