No Looking Back

Life is much too short to give your precious energy away to worry.
Without the demeaning thoughts of yesturday that bring you down, blessing will rain down on you in a flurry.
Do not keep gazing into the rear-view mirror of past events.
Turn off those negative voices and those connotations that make no sense.

Objects in the mirror may be closer than they appear.
There are things that increase uncertainty and manifest fear.
Don't permit your guilt to control your glorious future.
Instead, be led by the proverbs of great profits and let them be your tutor.
