Life is Here & Now

Every moment, we have a chance to choose how we want to live. Sometimes, we can get caught up regretting our past mistakes or worrying about the unknown future that we don't fully enjoy the present moment. 

Life is not something we can expect to live when our situation changes.

We are living it right now. 

Worry and stress are the killers of joy. When we spend our time and energy in these emotions, we are unable to appreciate what's right here, right now. How often do look back at the times we wasted worrying about what 'could have been' or what 'could happen'? 

Time is one of the most precious commodities we have. Once it passes, we can never get it back. We can never get precious moments with our children back. We have to appreciate those moments every chance we get. We can never get our youth back, but we can appreciate all the lessons we've learned to get us where we are now. 

By living in the here and now and enjoying the moments in front of us, we are able to fully appreciate the present. We are also creating a lifetime of memories that we will be able to look back and smile upon.

No longer say "I'll be happy when..." 

We can all find ways to learn how to live more fully in the present and be able to enjoy the 'now'.
