Anniversaries are a natural time to look back and reflect. Good ones, like your wedding anniversary, are joyous occasions filled with celebrations and fun. Negative ones — days when bad things happen in your life — aren’t so fun. Scabs get picked and pain resurfaces. It’s like someone is playing a horror movie in your head. It hurts.
I have those kind of anniversaries; And when they happen, I choose not to look back. I look forward one year. I’m look forward to all the great things that will happen to me and my family in the next 365 days. I’m look forward to the great things that are ahead.
Today is one of those anniversaries for me — I’m looking forward to the future. I refuse to spend the day looking in the rearview mirror.
I’m not backing up. I’m moving on.
