Past & Present


"There is no past we can bring back by longing for it, only a present that builds and creates itself as the past withdraws."
-The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

I really enjoyed the movie The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel (made me want to go travel in India!).  And I really loved the above quote from the movie.  Sometimes I find myself looking backwards (or even forwards) way too much ... worried about the future and regretful of things not done or accomplished in the past ... that I can forget to be fully focused on the present.  And the present is what really matters, as the quote about states - the present is what you build and create from in order to learn from the past and give birth to, discover, your future.
