Savor The Moment


Today is a gift.
Yesterday is just a memory.
Tomorrow may never come.

Let the little things throughout your day that would normally bore you, fascinate and excite you.

Appreciate your whole surroundings, not just the people and obvious items, but every single thing that appeals to your five senses.

Take a step back from the busyness.
Find a place to sit in silence.
Listen to all the various sounds around you.
Close your eyes and inhale deeply.
Exhale slowly, letting go of any stress.
Be thankful you are alive and well.
Be grateful for all that you have.
Bask in the beauty that is life.
And... Just... Be.

For it's the little moments that make life big.

Captive

Picture this... You sit in a locked prison cell, isolated. It's just you; no friends or family reside. You've been here so long, it's basically all you now know. It's home. One day, you hear footsteps walking towards your cell. They pause in front of your prison door. You hear what sounds like a set of keys jingling in their hands. Then a loud click rings through your ears, one that a lock makes as it becomes unlatched. The door swings open. The light from outside starts to engulf every inch of darkness that surrounds you. You cover your face because of your eyes' sensitivity to the brightness. Though you cannot see, you hear a man's voice as he says, "You're free. Go." Several seconds pass in silence. You don't move. Nothing happens. So he asks, "What's wrong? Don't you want to leave? Here's your chance." Although you don't possess much in your cell, you look around at what you do have... A pillow your ...

No Gifts

This holiday season, I want nothing. "Shame on you! Where is your Holiday spirit?" Before judgements pass, let me explain myself a little bit so that you can see where I'm coming from. First of all, I'm not angry. Nobody hurt my feelings. No one has me upset. And despite what some of you out there might think, I'm not trying to be a Scrooge in any way. This isn't my attempt to wage a war on Christmas, even if the media tries to convince our entire country of this so-called attack every single December. Last year it was Starbucks and their holiday cups and the year before that I believe it was Target. Heck, this year media platforms may even try to attack McDonald's because of their ball pit. I mean come on, it is a direct mockery of tree ornaments, am I right? Not wanting gifts doesn't stem from having a lack of money or a case of just me being broke . Thankfully, I still have enough in the bank to purchase new items for each of my family ...

Why Wait?

"One day: 2 of the most dangerous words in the English language." - Joshua F. Millburn You pretend you are invincible. You live as if there's a tomorrow. You procrastinate. You postpone. You take almost every aspect of your life for granted on an daily basis. You lie to yourself using phrases like "someday", "one day" and "later on". Why? Nothing in this life is promised to us. Nothing is permanent. And all three of those terms above represent an illusion of the future that is non-existent. You think time is on your side? You think he's your best friend? Well, I am sorry to break it to you... Time has NO friends. Zero. Zilch. Your past is nothing but memories. Your future is only a dream. Both exist soley in your brain. The present, the here and now, this very moment is all you have. Once you face that reality and fully embrace it, you then come to the realization that every single breath is nothing short of extraordinary...
