Life is so short. The days can seem awfully long at times. January seems very long to me. But now it is almost over.
When I was in my teens and twenties I thought I would never get old. I just disqualified the notion. Most young people do.
But I’m here to tell you, you just turn around and you’re 40, 50 and wonder what happened.
This post is about appreciating each day of our lives. I know it is difficult at times when things are not going well. Still, there is always tomorrow and hope, as long as we are breathing.
So, whenever possible, take life one day at a time and do what makes you happy. Work smart, play hard. Even while raising your kids, have fun and then have fun as a family. Whether it’s a date night, a vacation, or doing something simple, like hanging out at a park, the zoo, fishing, or swimming.
You will be so happy you did. You can’t remember the time, so do things now. Travel, learn to paint, swim, skydive! Walk, ride a motorcycle, play golf, ride a roller coaster, or do something relaxing like fishing. Maybe he’ll learn to fly fish. Travel to other countries or take a cruise. There are so many places to see and do, let your imagination make your decisions.
The main thing here is the conscious decision to go and do before it is too late. Fall in love if you are single! Love makes us live longer, researchers say.
Organize family gatherings and enjoy your grandchildren or great-grandchildren. Drive four-wheelers with them or take them on a trip with you.
Activities and happiness make us feel young. We need this in the retirement years.
You have worked hard during all those years of youth. Now is the time for you!
The golden years are here, now, if possible, turn them into your years of wealth into pleasure and happiness.
Loving life gives you the freedom to enjoy life. Your goals will become brighter and more satisfying when you enjoy your life. In your youth, you can make the changes you need to achieve your goals. The sky is the limit!
I wish I could return as many people my age wish. We would have made better decisions, reached for heaven, and made the most of every day.
So go ahead, loving life, living life to the fullest!
