"Nobodies [A Write's Block Quote Challenge]"
  by marcuz aka moo




The mouth of the past is filled with regrets.
It constantly probes and pocks at you.
Even from afar.
It tests you.
And you fail to forget.
Because it refuses to allow you to do so.
So you’re wishing that you could go back and do things differently.
You get no time machine like in the movies.

You’re always looking back.
You never look around you.
You never look in front of you.
Then suddenly you do just that.

You look around you and in font of you.
And you realize that you are no where.
Going no where.
You’re nobody.
Nobody at all who has wasted a significant amount of time all over him self.
Wasted it as if you’re infinite.
But you’re truly insignificant.

You tend to remember to regret.
And it seems as though you forget…..
That nobody gets to live life in reverse.
Look ahead because that is where your future lies.

“Nobodies”
Written By: Moo

Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
Today is a gift.
That’s why we call it the present.

(Nobody gets to live life backward. Look ahead, that is where your future lies. -- Ann Landers)
