Dan,

I was looking for something witty and encouraging to say, but nothing comes to mind off hand. I too have decided to stop looking at the past as a way to guide my future, although for different reasons. I found it to be self destructive to continue down that path for myself. Although I think it is important to have dreams and goals, I also think that a point has been made to life in the "now" because it is really all we are promised. You can plan for the future or look for your purpose until you are blue in the face, but seriously, you can walk out your door later today and get hit by a bus, then where will your purpose be?

My point is, while having a direction is important, don't forget to enjoy the day that you have before you. Don't get so caught up in who you want to be that you forget who you are right now. I'm not saying don't continue to strive for more...just don't forget to enjoy right now.

@ Doug and Rams - True, true.
@ Dee - the now is always enjoyed but there's no real point and that's the problem for me.
