 The past is nostalgic because it’s trapped in amber. 

You know what to expect. 

There are no surprises in the past. 

No danger that can’t easily be avoided. 

Safety.

But we don’t live in this past. 

We live in the present.

And danger is all around us. 

Embrace it. 

Embrace the uncertainty. 

Embrace the negative possibilities as well as the positive ones. 

Embrace it all. 

We are alive now.

One day we will be trapped in the past unable to move. 

But right now we are players on the board. 
 Dude. Reading your posts gets a part of me fired up in a way that is hard to describe.. 

I enjoy the feeling. 
LFG. 
 Are you talking about your penis? 
 Maybe.  
 Jokes aside though, I feel you. Hodls threads, stories and psychological insights fire me up as well! It's like my character and understanding grows in the tailwinds of his.

 Good morning. Let’s go! 
 Instructions clear: Hodling uncertainty 
 I know it is not badass it is more weak but I really fear the uncertainty from time to time 
 We all do. It can paralyze you. Important to move forward through it. One step at a time. 
 This is good stuff!  Fear is a legitimate emotion.  Fortunately we can choose to live not enslaved by our emotions.   
 Thanks for telling me what I needed, but definitely didn’t wanna fucking hear right now😂

I am addicted to comfort😏 
 We all are and it’s killing us. 
 Seems paranoid. I like it.

 You need to write a book please HODL  ✍️ 
You have a gift 🧡✨️🕊 
 Very well written and informative, thank you brother  
 All we have is now, the past is never more than a thought 
 And what a time to be alive! 
 Sir, this is a Wendy's 
 What will really blow your mind is when you realize the past also only exists in the present.  
 Yep 
 🤯 
 The past is pure order and the future is pure uncertainty (chaos)… life happens on mandelbrot border between the two.
