Our past is what created our today!. What we do today, will create our future!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not at all!. The present contains the implications of past events, but it is also the foundations of the future, and it contains a number of events that are happening in that current moment, of course!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would say that the present contains, is, in fact, the effect of the past and the present the cause of the future!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not at all!. The present is full of hope, aspirations and an endless supply of dreams!. The past is full of good and bad things, but the present tells us that only good can come from the future!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
