Well, yes. Die now and you are guaranteed not to have a future.

“If you’re going through hell, keep going.” Winston Churchill

“Quality is not an act, it is a habit.” Aristotle

“I am not afraid… I was born to do this.” Joan of Arc

Ten years into the future is eventually a yesterday.

That isn’t necessarily true.

A person can live a virtuous life, and his future could be disastrous.

Just read the Book of Job.

There definitely is a way to put off the future. It’s called procrastination. :P

The future is not what it used to be, so just go living in the past!

It’s best to get the future behind you, so you don’t have to deal with it anymore!

“…a similiar future”?

There IS one way, but you won’t like it!

Magnificent illustration each panel especially the 5th panel. “Related future” sitting on a Cholla cactus can cause a related future of considerable pain & should be avoided!

“Thoughts make habits. Habits make character. Character makes destiny.” Meryl Streep as Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady.

Well.. in the last 1500 odd years it probably has been worse at times. And, now.. is not a particularly good time to pause the future, lets get rid of COVID first, then trump and his ilk.. then climate change. Sheesh, there is no good time is there?

Best to just ignore Gaylord.

That is good teaching. Every choice we make today has an impact on our future.

Anyone else wondering why they’re sitting on cacti?

Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. Suffering follows an evil thought as the wheels of a cart follow the oxen that draw it.

Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.

The opening verses of the Dhammapada of Gotama Buddha.

It’s good to remind her anyways, that the future is unknown, memories in the past, and live for today!

Love the constantly changing landscape of the Enchanted Forest, as Gaylord and Broom-Hilda wax philosophical, and in the end Broomie punches it!

Broomie has more past than most folks can imagine. I suspect she’s already established the rut she’s riding into the sunset.

Why is there cacti in the water?
