Living for today

Life passes by like a speeding schoolbus. One minute, we're  unable to walk, talk, or fend for ourselves. The next minute it's over.

Life happens when we are making other plans. Birthday parties, social gatherings, vacations, or even the weekends, there's always a future event that needs attention today.

Today is all we got. There's no guarantee there's a tomorrow. We assume it will be there. It's always been there for us before. The assumption has always proven correct. For this, we believe it as truth. Yet, one day, the assumption will prove false. And on that day, it will be too late to change.

Don't think about it. Just feel it.

Don't over-analyze the morning sunshine. Feel the sweet taste of it.

Don't think about playing with your kids. Feel the happiness of being with people you love and love you back.

Don't worry about what you don't have. Celebrate what you do have.

Today is just about gone. Was it the best day of your life?

Do yourself a favour. Take 80 years and multiply if by 365 days/ year. The approximate number of days you will live is 29207. Then take your age and multiply by the same 365. Take the second number and subtract it from 29207. That's about how many days you have left to live. Or maybe today was the last one. No one knows for sure.

Isn't it time we start living for today. Tick tock. Time is not on our side.
