The 3 basic elements of Life:
Past, Present and Future.
Of which, I think Present is the most adptly named.
The Past is history.
The Present is mystery.
And the Future..?
The Present is a present to me.
A present full of surprises.
A present full of gifts. (friends!)

The Future will soon be the Present.
The Present will soon be the Past.
The Past will soon be the mould for the Future.
Life is a simple circle.
Perhaps, only Mathematicians appreciate Life. =)
