What do you hope for? What are you looking forward to? If you could design the future what would it look like? It is something unique to humans (as far as we know) that we can both reflect on our past, examine our present and dream and think about the future. We can look back or we can look ahead and whichever one we do the most impacts how we live in the present.

How a vision of our eternal future impacts our lives today

I hope you enjoy your weekend. Do let me know if there’s something here you appreciated or if you see something you think would be worth sharing, let me know!
