Sometimes you just have to live a little … in the past. It’s an eye-opening, or stabbing, thing. Nothing wrong with a clearer view or jab. When it’s spooky season — with Halloween and politics rolled into one big scare or thrill — it’s all the more fun, insightful and inspiring to take a little glimpse back. Boo! Live a little …. in the past, this scary old dinosaur says.

Oh, you’ve heard it. When someone is told they’re living in the past, it’s usually considered somewhat of an insult. It implies that the person is paralyzed, incapable of moving forward. Not always true, especially when it comes to old news that educates, stimulates, gives a greater perspective of the present or is just plain fun to revisit.
