Past Is Prologue To Future!
It was on a Thursday, January 6, 2000, that NW Okie published this in her "Heart To Heart," as a "Letter to The Editor." Past Is Prologue To Future! It is our responsibility to learn the lessons of our forefathers and choose wisely the steps into the Future.
"....We all were sea-swallow'd, though some cast again, and by that destiny to perform an act whereof whata's past is prologue, what to come in yours and my discharge." -- Antonio's speech, "The Tempest," Act 2, Scene 1, Shakespeare.
You meet some really great people out there through their words of interaction in this miraculous magic media of the Internet. Once in awhile, some friends send you on a quest (challenge). Those challenges turn into events, actions, and interactions which can prod your memory while rewarding you with experiences and knowledge that leads you one-step closer to your destiny into the future.
This is one of those friends whom, "...Operates under the theory that we never forget anything we have learned. Its just that we have to wait until our subconscious brings it to the surface... Sometimes with much prodding."
I found this statement out there on the web. "The issues that have had a significant impact on the 20th century society will lay the foundation for continuest change in the 21st century."
The issues, events, and actions that have impacted us all on this Island of the Universe should make us pause in our daily chores. Let us reflect on the past since the "Past is Prologue to the Future."
How is the foundation stacking up in your life? As the past sets the preface or introduction and builds upon the foundation for continuest change into the future, may we always learn from the past and not be condemned or bound to repeat the mistakes of our ancestors as we move forward into the next "True Millennium, 2001."
A friend of mine, Ms Belle, is leaving you with this about that, "We (All) were lost at sea, but saved from drowning by being thrown up on the beach of this island. It must be destiny, we were saved to do something more... Being saved from the sea was being given a second chance to start over again."
Ms Belle goes on to mention, "We have made decisions which created the past which is the foundation of our future, but we are NOT bound by the precedent of the past. We can change what we think of the past based on what we have experienced and learned in the present and, with the aid of that growth and insight, determine in what way we will go forward in the future."
The Past Is Prologue and the learning and knowledge is within us all! You Never Stop Learning! The choice is to each his/her own to use wisely when building that foundation to the future!
