This is something that I wrote on my mission, I thought I’d stick it up here to get everyone’s opinion on the matter… and to see if you get my little puns. Enjoy.
Many people say they’d like to freeze or rewind time to have a moment back, or to re-live a memory. People who think this way are greatly erred. it has been said that “time is the greatest teacher.” If that is the case, we should do our best to learn from it’s lessons. Instead of living in the past, wanting an old, pre-used moment back, why not live in the future? Build off of and improve the best of what you have of the past.
‘Past-dwellers’ rarely move forward because they believe the best is gone and the future holds no hope for something better. ‘Future-dwellers’ are inspired, using the lessons they have received from the ‘great teacher,’ making what was great before even better after.
Visiting the past is good and healthy and helpful to inspire us. I surely would not like to live there though. The cost is much to great and the quality outdated and unchangeable. The future, however, if we utilize the ‘present’ we have now, doesn’t cost so much and is very adaptable and comfortable.
Time is meant to be looked at in both ways (past and future) so we can learn from the past and make a future moment (which will one day be a past moment) better than all past moments before. If one can accomplish this, he has paid attention in class.

You allready know how much I love this.
I’m glad you posted it up here. Now other people can benefit from it as much as I did.
That’s the most intelligent thing i’ve ever heard you say. I agree.
Yea, it has that “missionary tone” to it.
Pretty thought provoking for a site with the tagline “life is a joke,” isn’t it? 
Honestly, though, really good words. I think that people waste a lot of time on regrets or wistfulness, which causes them to miss out on great things to come. The amazing thing about life is that once you realize how much control over it you have through your attitude, it becomes this incredible adventure. Gotta love it. Once again, good words.
Touching! Truly inspiring words.
Thanks. I really appreciate it.
