I don't know about you, but my reply was always the same, the future is in the past.

The future is the present

I just went and checked.

1) 90 day report has been scrapped.

2) TM-30 only required one time when you enter Thailand.

3) Marriage extension and retirement extension is now available at 7/11

4) Apparently prostitution has now been found in pattaya.

Are you quoting Kamala Harris?

The future looks bleak ,for what is it the next 3.5 years, then things will brighten....

Bob, my future's so bright, I gotta wear shades.

The futures not what it used to be.

What about the future ? At 85 I simply try to make the best of every day I get, day by day.

Take each day as it comes. Less worries. Worry about the future when it gets here. As long as you don't have a past to worry about, the future will always be bright. the lyrics to 'I'm for ever blowing bubbles', says it all.

The future is just what your mind imagines. We all have a past and we have today, but no one is guaranteed a future. Not saying that you shouldn’t look forward to it or worry about it, but be realistic. We aren’t promised anything, but death. Enjoy life till it bites you in the ass.

Did you mean death and taxes.

Future in general English.

In general terms (without the 's'), it refers to the future , which is a time that has not yet arrived or something that has not yet happened, as opposed to the past and present.

Assuming, of course, that you are the Bubbles in question.

The bars are full of robot bargirls. Thin, sexy, obedient and disease free

How long have you been in Thailand.

You tink to much.

Focus on contributions to society, doing the right thing, leading by example, and helping others when you can. Basically how you want to be remembered.

Buddha taught that clinging to the past causes regret, while fixating on the future brings anxiety and expectation. He emphasized anchoring the mind in the present moment, as it is the only time life can be lived, and the only realm where effective action can be taken

I wouldn't know. I never met the guy. And I certainly didn't miss much.
