Wed. For Today

December 14th, Do not peer too far. Pindar It would be a frightening thing to be able to see into the future. Equally joyless and disquieting, however, the all-too-familiar habit of Someday. "Someday, I will take that tap dancing class...sign up for volunteer service at the hospital..go on that cruise to the Greek islands." I have lived in the future too long. My life is going on now, and there is only one way to live it: now. For today: I neither want to know the future, nor to live in it before it arrives.
