Not a Place to Live.
This abandoned vehicle was great in its day.
But, today, it should be left in the past with all of the other memories. The only thing you can do with it now is to consider what it would cost in money and exasperation trying to retrieve and restore it.
What’s to be learned here?
As great as this car once was, why would you want it now?
Just what would you do with it if I gave it to you free of charge? You could sit in it and make vocal engine noises and pretend to drive it. You could put a For Sale sign on it and wait for the buyers to overwhelm you.
Or, you could pass on my offer and go on living your life.
Yesterday is a canceled check.
Tomorrow is a promissory note.
Today is CASH!
How much could you purchase with a promissory note or canceled check?
So, which would you rather take to the store with you? Right. Cash! Especially if you wanted to make a purchase. Having had money before is no different than this abandoned car once was once a prized vehicle.
So, remember the “good old days” and then put it where it belongs — in your memories.
Today you are breathing and you can taste whatever you wish.
Today is all that there is. Today is not a dream or a nightmare. Every one of your senses is in play. None were when you were thinking about yesterday or when you are thinking about tomorrow.
So, quit wasting your time and emotions anywhere else. Make today count.
