I just copied a quote from the ancient Chinese philosopher, Lau Tzu, in my journal today. He said, "If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present." This week, I will talk about all three, the past, the present, and the future.
Influence touches all those times in our lives. As we reflect on someone who influenced us, we must do that in the past. When we see how that influence affects the way we live, we do that in the present. Then, if we anticipate how that influence through us can affect others, we must dip our toe into the future. Pretty cool. And pretty important. As always, it has a lot to do about living grateful and with intention.
Thanks for listening!
