The future is as much an unknown masterpiece as your mind, imagination, and conduct can fashion.

Things we have done and said and experienced, or things that have been said and done to us, those are recorded. Facsimiles of a bygone present. It’s data, more or less. What we do with that data, with that information, has impact on how we feel and what we choose to do in the now.

It helps to treat time as it is—a continuum. That is to say, there is no such thing as the past. And likewise, no such thing as the future. ‘Past’ and ‘future’ are just monikers for concepts invented by man to simplify the processes and order of life. The truth is, time takes place continuously in the present.
