Do you think this is true ?

Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That’s why we call it the present.

    Yesterday is about a guy who told his story. Tomorrow is an unplanned present of curiosity to experience now. Today is already gone because the moment you experience it is the past. All you have is the memory of the experience. Just, don't take the past and put it in your future to live with it presently.

    no i don't think that's why we call present present!

    it's just what it's called

    i don't think today is a gift but i do think the stuff about yesterday and tomorrow is true

    it's always today and never tomorrow

    so how is it a gift if we always have it???

    shouldn't tomorrow be a gift if we ever get it cause it's something we don't have ??

    or is who ever does the days just a really bad gift giver??

    Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. And tomorrow is a surprise!!!

    Ummm.....well......hmmm.....? Actually, the present never really exists because the moment you are aware of it, it is already history.
