Hardly the day started and it is already six o’clock in the evening.
Barely arrived on Monday and its already Friday.
and the month is already over.
And the year is almost up.
And already 40, 50 or 60 years of our lives have passed.
And we realize that we lost our parents, friends and relatives.
And we realize that is too late to go back.
So let’s try, however, to take full advantage of the time we have left.
Let’s not stop looking for activities that we like.
Let’s put color in our greyness.
Let’s speak lovingly and kindly with whomsoever we meet.
Let us smile at the little things in life that puts a soothing balm in our hearts.
Let us go for long walks, breathe deeply and cherish the moment.
And yet, we must continue to enjoy serenely the time that remains.
Let’s try to eliminate the ‘AFTER’ – I will do it after, I will say after, I will think about it after, we leave everything for later as if ‘AFTER’ was ours.
Because what we do not understand is that:
After, the coffee cools, after priorities change, after health passes, after the children grow up, after we become old, after the promises are well forgotten, after the day becomes the night, life ends and after that it’s often too late, so leave nothing for later because always waiting for later, we can lose the best moments, the best experiences, the best friends, the best family.
The day is today. The moment is now. We are no longer at the age where we can afford to postpone until tomorrow what needs to be done right away. Start Living in the Moment that is so precious and beautiful.
So true, and great motivation too. Thank you very much Kamal, an have a wonderful week! Michael
