What does the future hold?



We have no idea what the future holds for us. In a matter of seconds everything we prayed, wished, and hoped for could be down the drain. With one slip, one mistake, everything that we had going for us could be gone. This is one of the main reasons that I try not to get to wrapped up in what I "know will be my future" and try to focus on now. I work to make the choices that I think will benefit me in the end.
I will be the first to admit that my life has not gone exactly as I planned it to. I have had ups and downs, happy moments as well as sad, but I wouldn't trade any of it. I may not know what tomorrow holds, but I know that I am happy with who I am today.
I wouldn't trade any of even the worst moments in my life, because without them I wouldn't be the person I am today. In junior high I was at the bottom. I didn't like myself, other people made fun of me, and I was generally unhappy with who I was. I started trying to please others instead of myself and it only made things worse. As soon as I decided that I didn't want that for myself, I started looking at my life one day at a time. I did the things that made me proud of myself, and it made all the difference.
You may not know what the future holds, but if you just work on being the best you can be one day at a time, you can move mountains.
