Life is really too short. Think about it. One day you are born into this world, the next you are sitting thinking just the other day you remember not having a care in this world. Life passes with the blink of an eye. I remember being young, playing with my younger brother, thinking the world seems so big. So open. Like everything was possible. There were no limits. There was nothing I couldn't set myself out to do.
I grew up and I am not 22 years old. This world seems to much smaller and I am afraid that as I grow older the world will seem that much smaller. I want to slow down my life and appreciate what I have know. Appreciate the feelings I have now. Appreciate everything that surrounds me. I want to stop living mostly for the future and living for the present.
There is a famous quote, that I forget who is by but it says, "Live for today because tomorrow may never come." A similair quote, "Appreciate what you have because it may be gone tomorrow."
I have decided to start a blog to appreciate the small things and enjoy the present moment. So many prepare for the future but don't see themselves in the moment. It is so hard to stop and really take in the present.
I hope this blog will help people to start thinking more in the present and appreciate the simple things in life.
