Live in the Moment

Too often we find ourselves
Consumed by stressors
That will not matter
In the long run.

Too often we find ourselves
Complaining about problems
That will not exist
In the long run.

Too often we find ourselves
Holding grudges against people
That we will not be friends with
In the long run.

Too often we find ourselves
Wasting precious time.

Why not live in the moment?
Why not appreciate the special people in our lives?
Why not take advantage of everything we have during our times on earth?

Laugh with your friends.
Smile at strangers.
Eat tons of dessert.
Visit new places.
Face your fears.
Love someone.

Live.
It’s what you will remember in the long run.

I was inspired to write this piece because I feel as though too many people are wasting their time being unhappy.  We must take advantage of everything we have and try our hardests to live happy lives.
