What you're doing now, or have done in the past, need not determine what you can do next and in the future.

Loved. You can't use it in the past tense. Death does not stop that love at all.

I have made good judgments in the past. I have made good judgments in the future.

I'm not good at future planning. I don't plan at all. I don't know what I'm doing tomorrow. I don't have a day planner and I don't have a diary. I completely live in the now, not in the past, not in the future.

We are threatened by the now so we jump to the past or the future.

All the things that are in the past are in the past.
