Every morning that we rise and take our first breath we have the option to be stuck in the troubles of yesterday or be great in the promise that things can and will get better.  We must set our intentions for each day to see the beauty in everything appreciate the small things because they are the stepping stones to greater things to come. Life can go by in the blink of the eye which is why it is very important to be present with life, our feelings, the people we love, and our inner thoughts.  Connect with life on an intimate level our life is too precious to leave it all up to chance. We must be committed to change and growth in our mind body and spirit. A good friend someone I would consider to be an angel sent to me from God, she is eighty-five years old was married for sixty-one years. She said to me and I quote “ I feel like  my life went by so fast I don’t think I got the chance to appreciate my husband enough or as much as I should have “ That stuck to me because it is so easy to get consumed with work , things we have to do ,bills we have to pay and  we do not give our self-time to appreciate life and all its beauty .I Say get   present with life  we cannot freeze or rewind time  but while we are living take a moment to just  close our eyes and just inhale gratitude and release fear ,doubt, and  negativity.  Spend more time-sharing love with everyone ultimately that is what makes life whole and beautiful the choice to be loving and living in gratitude. In life everything and everyone has a season and a time it’s the memories that last a lifetime. I promise to live a life creating memories, laughing more, living freely, praying more, worrying less, loving life and JUST GLOW. Be a light and an inspiration to others show that you can be happy in a world full of uncertainty and adversity. It is not about how long or short of a life you live it’s about the quality of the life you choose to live.
