I think it's from the song Beautiful Boy.


It is sung in Mr Holland's Opus - did you ever see that?

For the future.
Which is sad sometimes because you dont enjoy things from day to day.

Yep!

Beautiful Boy - John Lennon

Close your eyes
Have no fear
The monster’s gone
He’s on the run and your daddy’s here

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy

Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day in every way
It’s getting better and better

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy

Out on the ocean sailing away
I can hardly wait
To see you come of age
But I guess we’ll both just have to be patient
’cause it’s a long way to go
A hard row to hoe
Yes it’s a long way to go
But in the meantime

Before you cross the street
Take my hand
Life is what happens to you
While you’re busy making other plans


Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy

Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day in every way
It’s getting better and better

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Darling, darling, darling
Darling sean

Re: Do you live for the future or for the day?

we totally live for the moment and don't look at the future because we are here for such a short time and you never know what tomorrow will bring

Re: Do you live for the future or for the day?

we are a bit of both too..

we worry a LOT about the future, having enough money for children, a home, etc

.. BUT at the same time, we do from time to time throw caution to the wind and plan trips, buy ourselves certain items we want "just because" ... (within reason, but still a splurge here or there) I think its just healthier for us this way..

I never want to look back and have any regrets

Re: Do you live for the future or for the day?

We do both --- DH's paycheck pays all the bills (morgage, phone, electric, etc -- with some left over to save), and mine goes towards groceries and trips -- also with some left over to save.

We got lucky - he got laid off and got 6 months severance pay although he sarted a new and better paying job immediately.
I sold my co-op at 50% gain.

So we have plenty in the bank, and can afford to splurge at the moment.

That will all change when I become a SAHM, but in general we aren't worried about that - yet anyway!!

CARPE DIEM BABY, CARPE DIEM!!

ditto - us too!

ETA - if we don't enjoy today, there may be no tomorrow. While we don't live foolishly, we don't hold ourselves back. We're aperfect match in that sense, because we both approach life from the same perspective.
