Conversing With My Past Self

I asked my past self, "what would you prefer, watching a late night soccer game, or sky gazing?" He replied "Watching a late night soccer game". I asked my past self, "who would you like to spend Christmas Eve with, your best friend or family?" He replied "Of course, best friend!" I asked my past self, "what would you do if you won a thousand dollars in a jackpot?" He replied "Have a weekend party at my place!" I asked my past self, "what do you think about love?" He thought for a while, and replied "love is a fantasy". I asked my past self, "is life based on luck or miracles." He snarled at me mockingly, and shouted "Luck!" Today, I find peace in nature; I appreciate my parents; I spend money wisely; I have a loving wife; I feel blessed each day!
