Your life is a combination of past, present and future. You turn the past into experience, the future into hope, the present into profit and move on. Your life is built on a balance, and when you eliminate this balance, the structure that makes up your mental and physical integrity breaks down and you find yourself in a dead-end street.
 
When you turn your eyes to the horizon, you encounter hope, and when you direct your eyes to your inner world, you realize the passing of time and refresh your dreams. But for some reason, you always look back and are busy with the regrets of the past. You focus on what you leave behind, not on what's in your palm, and you climb up steep rocks. You are dealing with thrown stones, not with the hope placed on your chest, with your wasted efforts, with your loneliness, with your pain… As you stir up your accumulated pain, you go deeper and come across a child who has been hurt, whose dreams have been taken away, whose feelings have been taken away, and instead of soothing him, you trigger his pain even more.
 
Time passes quickly and you are always wandering around the back streets, unable to get out of your experiences. There is no cure in your feet and your path crosses with that fragile and hopeless child, and you share in his mourning. You find traces of pain in everything you put your hand on and you bleed the wounds of the child. You are walking on such a tiring road that you do not take a step back or forward, you continue to dig into your pain, bring your regrets to the surface and throw hopes above your head.
 
Life consists of past, present and future, but you can only see the back and get lost in the halls of wishful thinking. Tell me, why can't you turn your head towards the horizon and open the door to hope? Why do you focus on the time you are in and avoid seeing the contents of your palms? Remember, everything you experience is an experience that has been archived in time, an experience that will be useful to those who come after you, so put your experiences where they belong and don't turn them into pain. Does a person chain his thought horizon and his will? You are doing just that and you cannot turn your head either to the present or to the future. You wander through the grueling streets of the past and consent to stay here. You have believed that this is the only way, the only way and the only option, and you cannot get out of this vicious circle.
