Answer 1

Past, Present, and Future walk into a bar. Bartender looks up and says, "Whoa, you guys are tense!"

Answer 2

I probably focus on the future too much. I'm always thinking about what I want later, so I try to focus on the present more

Answer 3

And then the future.

Answer 4

Here and now!

Yesterday is over can't change a thing.

Tomorrow is not promised.

Answer 5

I care about the present.

Answer 6

The present is all we can control, though we can and certainly should plan for the future. So I focus more on the present, even though the past sometimes demands my attention.
I doubt if any of us can live solely in the moment.

Answer 7

can't really do much until my back and hips get better. just take it each day at a time really.

Answer 8

The past is an appreciation of things gone before, the present.....a moment to observe.  The future?......moments to contemplate I think.

Answer 9

Definitely more on the past.  That's when things in my life were (for the most part) better for me.  And, I always feel nostalgic when I think about what used to be around in the past.

I do sometimes focus on the present and even the future (neither of which I like, by the way).  But, compared to how often I focus on the past, the present and future don't even come close.
