Lately, I've been thinking a lot about just how short life is. Especially about how much time I waste doing things that don't even make me happy. And that kind of makes me feel ashamed. Because in all reality, I don't have time to be anything but happy! Life is so short, we can't even comprehend how little time we really are given. If we knew when our last day would be, would we honestly be content with entire days spent at home watching Netflix and not living every second to the absolute fullest? Not knowing when that final day will come should be even more of a motivation. Would you really want your last day on this earth to be spent not doing something absolutely SPECTACULAR? Because I know that I don't.
So what are we to do? It's really not as daunting a concept as it seems. To be honest, it actually all boils down to the simple things:
Appreciate the beauty all around you.
Remind the ones in your life that you love them.
Be patient.
Don't worry. Everything will work out.
Find joy in the little things.
Express yourself.
Decide to be happy.
Treat all things with kindness.
Don't waste time and energy with matters of little importance.
Love yourself.
To avoid wasting the short amount of time that we have left, we don't have to be embarking on exciting adventures or even be accomplishing what the world might consider great things. Happiness is in all in the attitude. And it is ABSOLUTELY attainable. No matter the circumstances.
