Hello DMers!๐Ÿ˜Š

First of all would like to apologize to all the people that look forward to the quote of the week as it is 4 days late. The reason I could not post it was because I was really sick and I still am a bit. So please don't mind that it is a few days late.

Back to this week's quote of the week but first let's announce the winner for last week's QOTW.๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Last week's quote was judged by T. aka Tanaz. Thank you very much Tanaz for taking out your time to judge our quote of the week.๐Ÿ‘

So now time for THIS WEEK'S QUOTE:

"If you want to know the past, to know what has caused you, look at yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the past's effect. If you want to know your future, then look at yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the cause of the future."

I think it means that our present is a result of our actions in ur past. If v feel dat our present is good, its bec of our good deeds and decisions and if we are not satisfied wid our present, the mistakes in our past is the result of it. But v cant change our past however we can learn from our mistakes and make our future better. Our present is what will cause of our future, so to make our future bright, v shud try and improve our present. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Hey Thanks Shelly ๐Ÿ˜ณ and Tanaz ๐Ÿค— for the kind words. MQT, beautiful siggy...

"If you want to know the past, to know what has caused you, look at yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the past's effect. If you want to know your future, then look at yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the cause of the future."

We evolve every minute of our existence. The process of evolution however in entirely in our hands. We can let it be an unbridled growth or evolution, or we can shape our growth.

We have our "past" to show us how and what we have become "today". We can learn from that experience to use our "Present" to shape a beautiful "future", a future of our choice. We have the power to make the "today" beautiful and to plan for a better "tomorrow".
