Why do we think our thoughts and plans can only effect the future not the past?

I definately believe that. I think we all have a "plan" of life. And that if something is meant to be it will be. The road might be rocky getting there but it will happen as it is supposed to.\nAnd if it isnt meant to be it  wont. You can not force it to.\nI also believe everything happens for a reason even if it isnt apparent to us what the reason is at the time.

You can't simply erase the past, or stop thinking about it, unless something goes wrong with your memory, because the past is part of the present. What I recommend you to do, which is I am doing now, is trying to live with this past even if you didn't like what happened. We can't change the past, we can't go back and fix the mistakes we've done, others have done or circumstances brought; but for sure we can start new everyday and change the things we're dealing with now.

You are in touch with the Universe and capable of seeing future events before they happen, why it happens I do not know for an absolute fact, but as for me myself I look upon it as a curse.\n\nPossibly you are a visionary who's mind through deductive reasoning can discern the probability of future events based upon current events, and current facts, and through thought your mind reveals it to you in your dreams.\n\nIf you find that you are plagued by these problems, please seek therapy.

Dear friend, Life is not about judging what they did, because that takes u into the past. Life is not about worrying what will happen next, because that takes u into the future. Both ways u r like a dead person, as u r not HERE, right now. Life is about living HERE and Now. Who am I, what is my purpose, how can I make a difference. Once a man was returning from work at mid night and the roads were empty. He saw an accident and thought " O God, I am already too late, I have to go to work early tommorrow, God pls help him". God appeared right in front of him, slapped him accross the face and said, "If I had to help him then why did I create u, why did I show u this accident.", the point is make a difference. Love all, help all\nLove\n\nLove

Time heals all and nothing stops the clock. The past is gone the present is now and don't worry about the future. Live today.

Memories are not necessarily created in isolation but rather in context.  When you were in your workshop you intended to do something but went upstairs to get something you need in the shop.  On the way you think of something else you need to do that day and the new thought dumps the old thought from short-term memory.  When you return to the shop, perhaps you see a tool you laid out or the item you planned to work on and you remember once again what you need upstairs.  This can go on and on for hours if you have a busy mind - and don't us post-its <G>.  People who never forget may have single-track minds.

When one believes only in the eternal moment of now, "past" and "future" no longer have revelence.

Good question!  In the distant future, I think people will look back on us as being too reliant on our emotions rather than our rational minds, will determine that we squandered far too many opportunities to make ourselves better, and will see that we leaned on each other for support far too much instead of standing on our own two feet as individuals.

I used to think it would be nice to be famous, or remembered for something great. BUT, I am hoping my life will never be completed (as in; over) and if all things I do in this life are in my past- no need to dwell or remember them- its the future thats important. I would rather be thought of in the future, than remembered for my past.

Concentrate on this: There are some things in our life that we want them to happen. For eg. one may wish to be married to a person of his choice. So what we want to happen with us is something which is always there in our sub-conscious mind. And since we have no control over the inactive part of our brain (almost 90%) we see our wishes in our dreams.\n\nOtherwise, dreams may also be te fears or fancies in our sub-conscious mind. eg. the fear of ghosts etc. \n\nIn no way they are related to our future. But yes, if you convert your dreams to reality, they better are.

It is true that all actions have far reaching after affects that we cannot begin to understand.  The tracks that we leave in the lives and futures of others are impossible to trace, but they also can make the hugest difference in the lives of those they encounter.\n\nI don't think it is possible to even begin to understand the impact  decisions made today will have on tomorrow.

I think some dreams do foretell the future and I think some show us the past.\nThe future ones to tell us where we are headed if we stay on the path we are on.\nThe past ones so we can learn from it.\nSome dreams of course are just that, dreams.

You'll know the future when it becomes the present.  Contemplating the universe gives a headache anyways, so just wait and see what happens.

Best not to worry about the future.\nYou would be far better off dealing with NOW.  The past is just your memories.  The future is possible plans.  You are Here, Now.
