“you are too concerned with what was and what will be.”
“there’s a saying: Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mistery, but Today is a gift! that is why it is called the ‘Present’.”

Master Oogway to Po

———————————————–

Master Oogway: “look at this tree, Shifu.”
Master Oogway: “i cannot make it blossom when it suits me,”
Master Oogway: “nor make it bear fruit before it’s time.”

Master Shifu: “but there are things we can control!!!”
Master Shifu: (kicking peach tree)
Master Shifu: “i can control when the fruit will fall.”
Master Shifu: “i can control where to plant the seed.”
Master Shifu: “that is no illusion, Master!!!”

Master Oogway: “ah yes, but no matter what you do,”
Master Oogway: “that seed will grow to be a peach tree.”
Master Oogway: “you may wish for an apple or an orange,”
Master Oogway: “but you will get a peach.”
