    A Quote from 'Joy on Demand

    Regret is living in the Past.
    Worry is living in the Future.
    Joy is living in the moment.

      I am a novice priest-in-training. Anything that I say must not be considered as teaching
      and should be taken with a 'grain of salt'.

        Please take my words with a big grain of salt. I know nothing. Wisdom is only found in our whole-hearted practice together.

          Other translations of this that I use depending on the occasion:

          Anxiety is wanting to change the future and depression is wanting to change the past. Just focus on the now and it will be ok.

          Or

          If you have one leg in the future and one leg in the past then you are pissin’ all over yourself.
