Ohhh, this life is so gloriously fleeting … please enjoy deeply whatever moment you find yourself in. No matter how crazy things seem; it will all be over so quickly.
- Touch your intimate partner lovingly.
- Give a genuine hello to the cashier.
- Be patient with your wild child (inner and/or outer).
- Kiss a slobbery dog right on his wet nose.
- Turn your face to the warm sun for a moment.
- Deeply savor that bite you’re about to take.
- Feel the autumn breeze wash over you like liquid silk.
Just enjoy every impossible second of this sweet stuff, this living thing we do.
Eventually, we will each reach our final day. Perhaps it may be many years from now. Although it might even be today. We never know. But we will reach that final day.
So even, if you can, enjoy the not enjoying … I suggest laughing at the not enjoying. It actually works.
Whatever you do. Please enjoy. All of it.
“You gotta learn to laugh, it’s the way to true love.”
~ Archangel Michael (in the movie, Michael)
