Onward and Upward. Let’s hit the road jack! Never give up. You gotta keep it going. It is never enough! He who hesitates is lost. Finally, we get it. Forever Forward. Keep it going. Think, think, think. There are so many challenges popping up here and there and nearly everywhere, everyday. Life waits for no one. Change makes it happen. Sometimes we are the cause of the unplanned change. Ideas, visions, plans, thoughs, ambitions, predictions,, dreams, hopes, movements, campaigns, and all the rest, occur continually and come from all directions. They never stop. They never weaken. They never retreat. They challenge. That’s right, they challenge us to duck and weave, to stoop or rise, to take control, to manage, and to success or fail. This is life. The unexpected happens every single day, day in and day out. The Boy Scouts of America are correct and the U.S. Coast Guardc are correct, 'Always Prepared' - remain prepared for today and tomarrow. To do otherwise is the folly of fools. Do I hear an Amen? Yes you do. Amen!Semper Paratus! - Always Prepared.We have to move forward, ever forward. We do not live in the past, but we use what we learn in the past to engage the future. We do this by moving Forward, Forever Forward. WE cannot re-live the past, but we can learn from it. Even when we reflect on the past to prepare for tomorrow, we only have today. We live in the here and the now. The present is all we have available for life. WE live for today an preapred for tomorrow, but. alas, the past fads in the past. In no small way, we are prisoners of time. All we have is now and we use it to transform tomorrow to experience a better yesterday. Moving forward begins in the now and forms our tomorrows so that in our yesterdays, we are where we wanted to be by living wisely in our yesterdays for a better tomorrow today. This is important stuff. Those who hesitate are lost to the future.
