Forget The Past. Look Into The Future

“Forget the past. Look into the future. A brighter road is waiting for you” – Calv Seet.

 

It is a simple quote which many of us will come across if we are found to be dwelling in the past for too long. I remembered there was a day where I was extremely disappointed over my final semester result. I am so close to achieve the desire result – like another 0.01?

 

Egg-it.

 

I was in dilemma whether should I request for remarking as there will be risk in losing the mark which I used to have. After giving a deep consideration and seeking for trustable advices, I give it a try but submitting a remark form to the office and waited.

 

There was drama in between. I was worried and stressed while waiting for things to end.

 

After 3 weeks, a letter was received and well… the board has decided to remain the mark. Surprisingly, I wasn’t that sad or upset anymore though it means that I’ve lost the chance of applying for attractive RM5000 rewards, a cert and the opportunity to continue PHD straight away. Well, I believe there are reasons for everything. I believe God has better plans for me. The material stuff which I used to want so badly is no longer important because, I have found something even more ‘breathtaking’ – something money can’t buy. Love.

 

Most importantly, I have tried to fight for my right and do things for myself. Thus, living no regret in future.

 

I am a person who will look into the past once in awhile to find if there is anything I can gain for my personal growth. The highlight is: I don’t like repeating the same mistake. Thus, learning from history is somehow important for me.  But, I will not let past interrupt my current life because, past is past. There is nothing we can change.

 

So, thank Calv for your original quote. I have found a suitable picture to instill the quote. Thank Mac for finding me a good angle =)

Quote of the Day

"We hardly need to be reminded that we are living in an age of confusion - a lot of us have traded in our beliefs for bitterness and cynicism or for a heavy package of despair, or even a quivering portion of hysteria. Opinions can be picked up cheap in the market place while such commodities as courage and... fortitude and faith are in alarmingly short supply."

- Edward R. Murrow

Truth Is Truth Unto Itself, Not Because People Say It Is

"When hearing something unusual, do not preemptively reject it, for that would be folly. Indeed, horrible things may be true, and familiar and praised things may prove to be lies. Truth is truth unto itself, not because people say it is."

- Ibn al-Nafis, 13th Century physician

Perhaps You Will Believe

"Perhaps you will believe with me that civilizations are not realities, but only dreams."

- Mark Twain

Quoting Edmund Burke

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
