The way I try to look at the present and the future is like this: For today, if I am NED right now, and there is nothing significant that I need to be concerned with, I really want to appreciate THIS day. Who the heck knows what tomorrow may bring. It may bring yrs and yrs of days like today, it may bring situations like before where I will be needing to contemplate options and whatevers.....So no sense in jumping the gun and spoiling the carefree days right here and now. I will deal with the future when the future becomes present.

Dont get me wrong...many times I do slip and worry about what may happen,....I just try not to for the above reasons.
