Your top 3- 5 years from now

12 years ago 0 +0 / -0 6252

What is the point? It could be tied to the quote of the day. It could be to see how many of us drag the past with us. Okay we can't get rid of it since it is in our memory, also if it is a repeat of other days it could become a core belief and that way influence us five years down the road. But it doesn't have to.

I don't know what the point is. But I know the day is almost over so any negative that happened today stays here, and today was not that good that I want to drag it along with me into tomorrow let alone the future. This little guinea pig is going to snuffle off to bed and dream of apple pies.

Already shared this on the Depression Site cuz that is kinda where I am right now :( Anyways....

Well, today was a very busy day... so perhaps it will have an impact, then again the impact could be nothing at all. How can we possibly know??? My granddaughter was dedicated to God today in her parents' church... so I would like to think that will remain important for the rest of her life, not to mention the next five years. Additionally, dh and I attended an SOS (Survivors Outreach Services) meeting for the first time since M died. This has to be some sort of landmark... perhaps a turn toward living again???? I dunno... but I think so. Perhaps five years from now (because of this meeting) we will be able to assist other families surviving the loss of their soldier...

Those are two things that could have long term positive impact.... the rest of the day?... I would say nah... just regular stuff I won't remember tomorrow much less in five years.... but ya never know... What's the point of the question?

Sam,

I'm not sure today will be any different from any other day, since incremental growth, as opposed to leaps are important to me. My expectations are probably more my problem than "reality". I have to adjust my "goggles".

Today I spent the beautiful day on the roof, trying to fix a couple of things(shingles need fixing and eavestrough was adjusted), and one of them was fixed. It was like a vacation. I cut my hand in a few places, but it was good to know that these cuts are signs of living and trying to do stuff, until I climbed back inside the window and dropped the window, and it broke. But my emotional roller coaster continued out of the valley, when someone pointed out that windows come apart with screws, but I knew that, having looked at the side of the window.

Resentfully, I took out all the glass with success, and can now probably purchase a piece of glass and fit it myself, rather than paying a fortune, only because I "interpreted" the suggestion that the screws were there, as "I can fix this".

I keep wondering if listening to classical music helped, since a friend once believed in the optimisation of our being with baroque music...sorry to ramble but maybe this music actually helped!

It won't matter. Today will be in the past and only counts as something to learn from. If you asked how has five years ago effected today I would have to say that I don't ever want to live it again and not even in my memory. Today is what counts for me. Live it to the fullest because tomorrow it is in the past. Dwelling on a negative past creates a negative today and leads to a negative future. Who could possibly want this. Well some do it seems.

If today is positive the chances are good that five years from now will be better, but will today matter. I suppose as something to learn by it will. Fortunately negative can be buried so it is not going to have any more influence than I let it. If I cry today doesn't mean I have to cry tomorrow. Smile and the world smiles with you, frown and you do it alone.
