This moment is your moment
“In the race to be better and best, lest we forget to just be.”
~Unknown
Just being…what a wonderful way of saying, STOP, and take time for today. Saturate yourself in the time you’ve been given right here, right now. Because you know what? This moment, right now, is unique to your life and you can never come back to it.
When our life is in its final hours, will we regret not taking more time to “just being”? Just being there to savor more sunsets; just being alone with our thoughts; just being, surrounded by beautiful music; or just being with those we love so dearly.
You may have read this beautiful poem, but even if you have, it’s worth re-reading…often.
First I was dying to finish high school
and start college. And then I was dying to
finish college and start working.
And then I was dying to marry and
have children. And then I was dying for my children
to grow old enough so I could go back to work.
And then I was dying to retire.
And now I am dying…
and suddenly realize that I forgot to live.
