Living in the Moment or Living for the Future?

Something that is extremely hard for me is living in the moment. I am always thinking about the future and what this or that is going to do for my future. If the guy I am seeing now is going to be in my future and if I don't get to know him now, will he still be in my future? What friends will be in my future? What I am going to do in my future? What college am I going to transfer to in my future? Its so stressful sometimes because thats all I think about in certain situations. Even in "In the Moment" situations, I always think: Oh, Ill be mad at myself if I don't do this, or this will be cool to look back on in the future.

I've been told though that it is a good thing to look to the future because then you have a broader view of things and not just the day to day view that most teens have. I just wish that I could have both, you know? I wish I could just live in the moment and not care about anything, but also think about my future and think about what is good for me and what will do me and my future family good.

Well, this is a short post, but that was what was on my mind and I just thought that I would jot it down and just get all my thoughts out. If have more thoughts on this later, I will tell you. I always do that, I always post a new post and then after think of what else I should have put in there. Its really irritating.. Its just like when you have a fight with someone and after you are like: "Oh, shoot.. I should have said that, it would have made a stronger point" Yeah.. It sucks. :P Well, I hope you have a fabulous Thursday! Buh-bye! :)
