kal aaj aur kal

Been some time since i had last posted some non sense. I had been on the look out to post some more but you know the lack of material and time has severely decimated my wish.
Yet every dog has his day and blah blah.. one my colleagues had given me an idea for my blog. We were jobless and generally talking shit when somehow the topic of good luck and bad luck came up. You know how things go in random aimless conversations. He claimed that there is no such thing as good or bad luck. It is just mere chain of events that occurred and sum of all the happening in the past.
So I argued, what is the purpose of 'present'? If all events are warranted by things that happened in the past then present and future does not have any existence. As per him, all events that happen are resultant of things that happened at past. So at time point 0 what determined the future course of events.
My view is that Present being the point where past and future time frame intersects. Mathematically, it can be alluded to 0 where negative side represents the past and the positive side representing the future, figuratively. Or in a better manner, cation representing the past and anion representing the future while present is the interaction of cation and anion or the resulting spark. But yes, the past always have some influence on our future. For example, if i dnt study during the semester, i am bound to bomb my end semester exam. Stuff like that.
To sum up i liberally quote Master Cogway: " Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery but today is a gift. Thats why its called the 'Present'."
