As the final hours of being 21 come to an end I am challenged with the never ending thing called time. Time is only here for a short while. This very moment will never present itself again, and you are spending it sitting in front of a computer screen reading this... But seriously, the only life on earth that we will be given is getting shorter and shorter by the second. Because no one really knows when they will pass, we all should be living like this very second or moment is the last we will be given.
This thought brings me to my next question, what if we all were to live our lives with this concept? What would this world be like? How would it change? I feel like the people of this world are so selfish, including myself. If we are on a "mission" towards something or destination, nothing will stop us or get in our way, even if it means we get to where we were going 5 min later. We are all about ourselves, me, mine and I. But what if we could change? What if we could live today as if tomorrow would never come?
This concept has been on my mind a lot and especially today. Life goes on, the world continues to turn about. Where does this leave you and what is consuming my life?
I love my life and the people in it. Yes, I tell them that everyday, but how much more would I be willing to do for them if I wasn't going to be around tomorrow? I wished I could wake up every morning with this same thought process and actually live it out. I think not only would I end up being much more happier and fulfilled, but I could be a bigger blessing to people.
In my final 2 hours of being 21 for the very last time, I want to remember them as the hours that changed my life. From here on out I am going to try very hard to live every single breath as if the next wasn't promised because in reality, it isn't.
I leave you with a very peaceful picture that should remind you, like it does me, that this world we live in is so much more beautiful than we are realizing because we are so consumed with other things!
Life is beautiful!
