The idea of living in the moment is not just a proposition but an important concept. I know living in the moment is not as simple as the saying ‘live as there is no tomorrow’ goes. Living in the moment takes a lot of practice and exercise. But once you learn to enjoy and be in the present moment, the results are immaculate. You tend to live a fuller life and appreciate the beauty every second of the day.
I have met people who neither themselves live in the present nor let others around them have a peaceful today too. They either allow the bad episodes of the past linger like a bad smell around them or let the good chapters engulf the accredation, that their present deems. Time is never the same always. Change is the only constant and should be accepted warmly. Because even if you do not, it still does knock on the door and opens it even if the door is unanswered.
No matter how beautiful your past was, appreciate the beauty of the present. Never demean what you have today compared to what you had yesterday. Pay attention to the small details around you and be thankful for being where you are in your life today. Vice versa, never belittle your past in comparison to what you have today. Be grateful for all the ladders that helped you climb where you are standing today.
To live happily, focus on the ‘now’ always. Focus on what you have. Focus on what you’re doing. Live in the moment as it has all the beneficial physical and mental effects on you. Submerge yourself in the pool of gratefulness. Acquire the art of savoring your present. Take notice of small things to cultivate positive experiences. Just slow down and relish what the moment proffers you.
