One thing is absolutely for sure in this life. You are not going to make it out alive! If we say we will make it 75 years as an average (a guess on my part), then you can count how many springs you have left. For me, this spring means I have 28 more springs to enjoy! How about you?
Sometimes we can get so caught up in working and worrying about tomorrow that we forget to enjoy today. I mean enjoy today like there will be no tomorrow!
In the real world, all we can do about tomorrow is to set some intentions of where you might like to be, consciously make every choice you can based on your values, and leave the rest of it up to the Universe and God. We, as a people, tend to try and control the future; but this is joke! If you really consider how little control you have, you would spend much less time worrying and more time staying here, in the present moment.
Every minute given to us is a gift to be treasured and savored. Don't risk being in the position one day of looking back on your life and wishing you could live certain moments over again, wish you had done more, been bolder, spent more time with loved ones, traveled, adventured, LIVED!!
No matter where you are in your life, I would ask this of you:
Accept the present as the gift that it is!! Make the most of it…NOW !!
