My future self is so close that I can reach out and touch her. “I know you are here,” future me says to know one. “I think you can help me.” I look over my shoulders for anyone I might be talking to, but there is only me. “Are you talking to me?” I ask aloud, but my voice fades into nothing as it leaves my throat.

Be happy with what you have been given. Live for today not tomorrow. Get up, get out, and start living, Because the past is the past for a reason. It's been, and now it is gone, So stop trying to think of ways to fix it. It's done, it's unchangeable; move on. Each day we wake is such a gift; No moment's guaranteed. Tomorrow isn't promised, But to fate we must concede. We cannot know our futures, How long or short our lives. We simply do the best we can

I understood his way of thinking but how do I proceed forward from here? “Simple. What you need to do is focus on what is best for you and your future. Be smart and start thinking about yourself more. Choose what is in your present that you think will lead you to the best future possible.

"Yes," she said. "I am your future self. And I have come to guide you on your journey." As Maya's future self spoke, the landscape around them began to shift and change. The glowing plants and animals grew brighter, and the air was filled with a sweet, musical hum. Maya's future self reached out and took her hand, leading her through the ever-changing landscape.

His voice trails off as he lets regret take over. “I’ll tell you what I told Bethany on the way home today. If you live like mom, if you live in the past and let it rule your life, you’ll lose everything. You need to look forward, Dad.
