Future (Mar. 15)
It seems that the majority of people in the world spend a considerable amount of time worrying about the future. It would be frivolous to even begin to talk about how important the future is simply becuase of this fact that people spend so much time either thinking about the future or planning for it to some degree. The funny thing about it all is that of the three possible categories of time, the only one that is completely figurative from the human perspective is the future. The present is real because you are always currently experiencing it. The past is real because it has already been experienced. The future on the other hand is speculative and has yet to be experienced by any human. Even as one worries about the future, the reality is that it will soon become the present and immediately following that the past. Then you will need to be reminded of how important it really is. For all that time you spend worrying and planning, it will soon become forgotten and you will only be dealing with the continuing consequences of your actions in the present.
