“You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island of opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land; there is no other life but this.”Good or bad, our lives are filled with memories, moments we've gone through from bad hair cuts, to afternoons full of laughs, tears and even fear, no matter what it was about, everyone has memories and has lived moments that have helped them become who they are now.Henry David Thoreau
Every second of our life something is happening, it may not be exciting, it may not be something to remember but we are living and that's all that should matter, at least for you.
When we don't do something we get stucked in this though of "What could have happend?"/"What if...?" that haunts us for months at the time, not letting us forget about everything that we could have said, everything that we could have done to change that one little thing that is bothering us.
We've all been there, we hold on to the past and fear the idea of the future and ignore everything that's going on around us until it's too late, until we can't do anything and we've already missed the moment. It's quite easy to get lost.
Everyone tells you to just live the moment, to leave your phone at home, to not worry about anything that's coming next, because you can't do anything to change what you've done and you cannot do anything if you don't fully know what's coming next so, why worry now?
Live in the moment, enjoy what going on around you, cry, laugh, think, rest, whatever you do, enjoy it, it's never coming back and it's true what they say, once you start getting old, everything starts getting harder and goes faster.
Enjoy what you have now instead of regretting what you didn't do before.
