You want to be younger?
Every second is the future and every second that has gone by is the past.
"No wise man ever wished to be younger." Meaning that if they were younger they probably wouldn't be as wise as they were. They would have to face the challenges of the past and hope for a better future. Being young again can be great, but the consquences that follow it may be greater.
At the age of thirteen you are still 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 years old. You may beg like a 12 year old, be as stubborn as an 11 year old, try to act older like a 10 year old, annoy someone like a 9 year old, run around like you're 8, fight like you're 7, cry like your six, hide like you're 5, throw fits like you're 4, try new things like you're 3, suck your thumb like you're 2, or sit there staring like you're 1. Depending on the time and event...You act like so many different ages...
So...a person who is old, is also very young. This is why a wise man never wishes to be young. It is because they are young and the phrase, a child at heart is indeed true. Although their bodies might not be able to carry out actions that could have once been done, they still have memories. Memories are the things that keep you young, in my opinion. Without them you wouldn't remember how to be a little 1 year old or how to tattle-tale like you are seven. Memories are the bridges to the past, present, and future.
If you think of it...the past and present are connected easily, but the future is different. Each moving second becomes the present and past, but just by thinking of the future creates a memory. But these memories are more special. Instead of being called a memory, they shape into what is called a dream.
A dream is something we want for the future, or something that springs from our thoughts from the past, therefore connecting the past, with the present, and the present with the future. Without dreams, I believe there is no future. If you are to fufill that twisted memory and succeed, then you will shape the future. Then everything will be alright. Dreams are meant to comfort a person, give them hope, twist the past for good. Dreams are goals and aspirations. Dreams are the future of people. I believe that if you just dream and think, you'll shape everything and anything to fit you. Just don't let that dream twist into a nightmare.
