said a simple quote I found to be astonishing; Churchill stated “If we open a quarrel between past and present we shall find that we have lost the future.” At one point in life we are almost always focused on one time zone or another either the past‚ the present or the future. I find almost always that these times zones can either be in sync or incompatible. Yes‚ there may be positive aspects to the past‚ the present or the future but with every positive there just so happens to be a negative that

1. To me the past does matter because that makes you who you are now even though sometimes you try to ignore it your past will always stick by you.
