Dreams of the future

"I like dreams of the future better than the history of the past." - Thomas Jefferson

Amen forefather.
While it is important to learn from the mistakes of the past and hold tight to our memories, one of the brightest points of everyday is looking forward to what will happen next, the unpredictability of every day. Well ... I did not appreciate waking up and realizing that I needed to buy more creamer for my coffee... and that my brake fluid is out again for about the third time in three months (leak is the assumption.) Those were unpleasant surprises. But you know what I mean.
