The Beauty of Life

“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”

― Ashley Smith

         People spend their entire life searching for a miracle never realizing that life itself is THE miracle. Don’t take life for granted, for it can be here one moment and gone the next. Take time to appreciate the beauty surrounding you and don’t wait until tomorrow to tell someone “I love you,” for tomorrow may never come.

Take Your Time

“I’m going to enjoy every second, and I’m going to know I’m enjoying it while I’m enjoying it. Most people don’t live; they just race. They are trying to reach some goal far away on the horizon, and in the heat of the going they get so breathless and panting that they lose sight of the beautiful, tranquil country they are passing through; and then the first thing they know, they are old and worn out, and it doesn’t make any difference whether they’ve reached the goal or not.”

― Jean Webster

     Life is not about reaching your destination; rather, it’s about the journey. It’s about the bumps, twists and turns you encounter and how you respond. It’s about growth and discovery. So, don’t sprint to the finish line. Instead, take your time getting to the end goal…take detours and stop to smell the roses.

Live Simply

“In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don’t try to control. In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present.”

― Lao Tzu

         Be authentic and genuine in all that you do. Live simply. Life is about being present and enjoying every moment you’re given, for it can be gone in an instant.

Doing Your Best

“Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment”

― Oprah Winfrey

        You must remember to focus on the present moment and not linger on the past or on a future that has yet to happen. So, each day strive to be a better version of yourself. And by working to do the best you can at every moment, you position yourself for obtaining the life and future you desire.

Take the Chance

“In case you never get a second chance: don’t be afraid! And what if you do get a second chance? You take it!”

― C. JoyBell C.

     Live life courageously. Don’t be afraid to take chances and most importantly, don’t hold back. Embrace everything life has to offer and don’t be afraid to leap with both feet. Treat each moment as if it’s your last for tomorrow is not promised.

Right Here, Right Now

“Breathe. Let go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure. ”

― Oprah Winfrey

        Life is happening right at this moment. So, you must always strive not to waste one second for you aren’t promised anymore. It is therefore important to make the conscious effort to engage in the present. Tomorrow is not promised and yesterday is a thing of the past. But, this moment right now is yours alone to do what you please with. Don’t let it go to waste.
