"You are too concerned with what was, and what will be. There's a saying: 'Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.' "
Aemond, internally: Wait, shit... Gotta say something motivational.
Aemond: Right now may suck, but you know, a wise person once said “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.”

B-6: It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.
It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen. Harry and Ginny were casually strolling through Muggle London, hand in hand, as they enjoyed the pleasant weather while they did whatever caught their fancy. If Ginny saw some clothes that she particularly liked, then they would go into the store and spend how much ever they liked taking a look at all the clothes.
Harry saw some jewelry that he thought would look incredible on Ginny, so they went to browse some more. Being able to just browse, and not worry about someone going to randomly attack them was a luxury Harry was not used to, nor had. His entire life; until now that is, was spent looking over his shoulder in worry of an attack. But ever since he had defeated Voldemort, he had been more free than ever. Free to live his life, to be happy. He was free.
Being with Ginny also reminded him that he deserved love, to be loved, and not be expected to give anything other than love back. Dumbledore used to tell him that his ability to love was what made him so strong, and was the reason he was able to defeat Voldemort. Voldemort never understood it, the feeling of loving someone, and having them love him back. Even with a piece of Voldemort’s soul embedded in his scar, it never deterred his ability to love, and it didn’t change who Harry was.
It allowed Harry to have a future, and he knew that Ginny was it. Ginny was his future, and the Weasleys his family. Ron his brother and Hermione his sister. Family didn’t always mean blood, which formed the saying ‘Sometimes the family you choose is stronger than the one you were born into.’ And he knew it was true. Look at the Dursleys, they hated Harry, and they were supposed to be related to him.
He shook his head, preventing himself from thinking about the Dursleys, they were in the past, and now he needed to focus on the present. The past is the past, and it should stay there. The future was in front of him, and he’d find out what it was. For now, he could focus on the present, and he smiled at Ginny, who had been staring at him curiously.
“Something wrong?” She asked. “Nothing’s wrong when I’m with you.” He said, pecking her softly on the lips. “Smooth talker.” She grumbled, but Harry could see her fighting back a grin. He chuckled when Ginny’s stomach rumbled. “Guess I should feed my Weasley.” He said, lowering his voice. Ginny grinned at him and tugged his hand to a nearby restaurant. Yesterday was history, tomorrow was a mystery, and today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the present. He was happy, and that was all that mattered.
I Can't Believe It, Splatoon Grand Festival! Just a Week Away!
I finally figured out how to send images from my switch lite to my phone, and from there I was able to email them to myself, so I've put together a little fit check :3
My splashtag is "Splatzone", which I thought was a fun name until I realized it was the name of one of the x series modes. Still keeping it cuz it sounds cool, plus it's my favorite mode to play.
Some other photos I did to show off the outfit, plus look how cool the lobby is now!!!!
Of course I had to have a cheesy quote for my splatfest art:
"Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, but Today is a gift. That is why it is called the Present."

Before people come at me for choosing team present, no, I did not do it just because it's being repped by OtH, even though they are my favorite splatoon idols.
I am a very anxious person. I always have been for as long as I can remember. I'm constantly worrying about the shit in the past, and the potential shit in the future. Both have looked bleak to me for most of my life.
But recently, I've been trying to take measures to not overthink as much. Part of that has been trying to anchor myself into the present.
You can't do shit about the past because it already happened.
You can't worry so much about the future because it is ever-changing.
But you can do something now. Right now.
You learn from the past to work towards a better future, right here in the present.
and that is why I chose this team.
...
anyway whoops got a bit heavy there lmao, I wish everybody luck with the Final Fest!!!!
