Great Past, Greater Future

Lebanese-American poet Kahlil Gibran said that life leads us from our great past to our greater future. How wonderful it is to think of your past as great, isn't it? Don't you often, though, see it as anything but great? You perceive it as rather disappointing, you feel you haven't been able to reach your goals. At times, you might even see it as a failure. But it is not. Your past is great because it gifted you with experiences which - if you are wise enough - can teach you a lot. And precisely these experiences will take you towards a future where you may still be able to fulfill your dreams, provided you do your best and work for it.
