The Days Fly By. We Must Remember All Of Them And Regret None Of Them.
How often have you thought to yourself, 'where has the day gone', 'where has the week gone', 'where has the year gone'? Time flies by doesn't it? Seemingly, in the blink of an eye, we are ten years older, our children have grown up, and our hair has gone grey (if we have any left). We look back, we think of our childhood, and we realise how much time has passed. Life is sad. Life is emotional. Life is crazy. Yet, every day, the sun rises. Every day, the sun sets. Every day, people laugh. Every day, people cry. This same cycle has repeated itself since the dawn of time. How much of our own time have we wasted? How much of our own time have we LOST?
We all have regrets. We all have things that we have done that we wish we hadn't, or opportunities which we wasted. We all have made mistakes and have to live with them. Why do we beat ourselves up? Why do we long to have had the benefit of hindsight when we know full well that we don't. Life does not work retrospectively. The only thing that we have control over is what we do next; what we do now. So why do we not live our lives with consciousness? By that I mean, be aware of your actions and be aware of the present moment. Be aware of what is happenning in your life, what you do and how it affects things. Respect your parents, appreciate them, be grateful for them and for their love. Realise that time passes fast, and live your days with meaning. Fill them with activity, with happy memories which you create for yourself. Live with passion. Be aware of 'today' and how you utilise your time. Live your life with purpose, both for yourself and for others. Live every day as though it is the last. That does NOT mean to live believing that you are going to die, but to live every day knowing that it has not been wasted. Live for today with forward thinking, and do not create that life of regrets. Only we are responsible for that. Never create that day where you look back with disappointment. We are ALL in charge of our own destiny and our destiny is determined by what we do in the moment.
Remember to live with a positive outlook. A message which may appear negative, is only negative when your outlook is negative. Sometimes we need a reminder, a kick up the backside, in order not to be complacent. If you do not waste your days, you will not regret your days.
Life is a constant opportunity to create memories, to create achievements, to challenge ourselves, to develop our abilities. It is in our own hands. Do not be the person who looks back on their life and realises too late that they did nothing. Instead, be the person who can look back with wonder at all the things they have done. Today is not too late to start. Today is not too late to create your legacy.
