History

I went to a tour today sponsored by a local church. They were giving tours of their church and cemetery. A lot of prominent people from Greenville were buried there, including the man who started the town. The church's people were all very proud of their church and did a good job in telling the story. So, I got to thinking. How many of us don't care what happened in the past? How many are just thinking about today and worrying about the future? The past is important, as long as you don't live in the past. I used to do that. I used to dwell on the things that happened to me years ago and lost sight of the present. A friend of mine told me today that I needed to be more positive about myself. Good advice. To those out there that I may have wronged in the past, I'm sorry for the umpteenth time. I can't tell that to BJ, which is one I'll just have to live with and move on. And to those out there who may want to move on with me, let's go. It is okay to remember the past. It is not okay to stay there. So, thank you to all of those who have come before us, and let's look to tomorrow.
