"6o seconds and counting...."
Lately I have been looking at the sky, particularly the stars and appreciating what life has to offer. Taking a single moment in time and framing it in my mind and critiqing its existence or admiring its beauty. Most of these moments occur when I’m driving my car, usually at night time when the moonlight shines bright, accompanied with a magical breeze that sweeps through the windows, whisking away my worries…then skipping them along the shoreline like flat rocks.
I think one of the tricks to enjoying life more, is slowing it down... take the moments and embracing it with all of yourself. Don't rush through it - don't think about what you have to do later on that day - just "be" - Look at how the grass blows, watch the ants run through the swaying skyscrapers of green, maybe even take a second to wave back at the trees… or simply look for shapes in the clouds.
In fact, take 1 full minute right now and think about absolutely nothing... just enjoy the moment. 60 seconds can feel like forever, we sometimes forget how precious such a small amount of time can be.
Do it – truly relax and feel the calm throughout your body.
Time is the difference between being on a bus or watching it pass by - winning or losing - a chance to tell someone how much you love them - a chance to say goodbye - a minute is an eternity when you realize that you have no more minutes to spare - 60 seconds is most definitely sacred.
I can think about a lot of things I would trade for another minute of time on this planet.
But remember, you can’t buy time.
Therefore…
Appreciate the importance of your life - and what it means to have all the time in the world... don't waste it on deadlines, stress and sadnesses. Definitely don't waste it taking it for granted. Above all - don't let it pass you by because:
" Life isn’t something you can finish last minute...."
