I woke up yesterday, and it was December. Where does the time go? As a child, we can’t wait to grow up. Nothing comes soon enough. As we get older and would like to stop aging, it seems as if time could not possibly move any faster.
This is because we are always looking ahead and working toward a plateau that we will never reach. We are always thinking along the lines of, “if I can JUST get through school,” “if I can JUST get that job,” “JUST that promotion,” “if I can JUST get to retirement.”
When will it be enough? By the end, our lives have simply passed us by because we were trying to get on to the next bigger and better thing. If we are always just trying to get THROUGH everything, how are we ever expecting to ENJOY anything?
Life is not something to “do.” Instead of viewing each day as a choir, we should appreciate it as the true gift that it is.
You only get one today. You got it for a reason. Make the most of it.
Yesterday is history, and tomorrow will come when it is ready. Make the most of each day so you can ultimately live life to its fullest. Do not grin and bear life; smile and enjoy it!
