Accepting The Present

Live Life Now!


Over the years, I have realized that life is a collection of moments rather than a grand plan. What we plan rarely happens, and even though we may have done quite well for ourselves, we always tend to have a certain irritation about things not going as we had planned.

People often tend to define certain rules and boundaries of behavior as a framework within which to live their lives. In contradiction, living for the moment is about taking things day by day and being happy with whatever comes your way. Even if you have long-term plans in life, you can live for the moment by breaking your plan into more short-term and attainable goals. Living for the moment teaches you to take everything step by step.

Planning too far ahead often leads to panic and disappointment. It causes anxiety over things you have little control of in your current situation. Instead, try to see what opportunities life has to offer now and don’t be afraid to follow your heart. Life is a gift and I have become a happier person by accepting the present!
