Unwritten


Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
                        ~ Lyrics from “Unwritten” by Natasha Bedingfield


The past is useful.  We can learn from it, be proud of it and reminisce about it, but it is the past, and it cannot be changed.  Often we spend too much time in the past.  We cannot re-write the past; we can only author our future.  Like the lyrics from the song above, today is where your book begins.  In another part of the same song it refers to a “blank page before you”, each and every day is a blank page, an opportunity to write the future, an opportunity to impact what happens.  Those opportunities do not exist regarding past events. They do exist for today and tomorrow.  The days, minutes, and hours which are yet to happen are blank pages.  The rest is still unwritten...
