(I was just talking about regrets in my post yesterday.)

(But I felt like reflecting more and decided to write something related to it.)

(And that lovely quote above couldn’t have come at the right time.)

(So here it goes…)

As I get older, I realize that I am better able to understand the importance of living for the moment.

Thinking about it actually makes me feel guilty as I’ve wasted a lot of these precious moments…

And that instead of spending those moments wisely, they were either lost by me brooding over the past or worrying about the future.

Neither is ideal for using the time I have in my hands.

Because either way, I end up unproductive.

Either way, I throw away my chance to make things better and grow as a person.

Either way, a single breath of my life is gone for nothing.

And either way, I wasn’t really living.

And couldn’t there be anything worse than being alive but not actually living life at all?

I told myself, I don’t want to spend the rest of my life just letting every minute, every second slip away just because I let them to.

And I don’t want anger or fear to take over joy and laughter.

So I am choosing to live my life for today…

Today and nothing else… because there wouldn’t be anything else.

Take care and God bless!
