words to live by.

"A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind. This one a long time have I watched. All his life has he looked away... to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was."

--yoda--

i was watching the empire strikes back earlier tonight and these words hit me.

i mean, no one wants to end up like darth vader.

if you're constantly looking to the future, you won't appreciate the place you're in today.

i feel like i talk about this a lot, and for that i apologize, but i just feel this great need to keep my mind on where i am right now.

and it helps to be reminded of that goal often.

especially whilst watching star wars.

that yoda really knows what he's talking about.
