All we have is now
"Are you having a goal to achieve or planning to do more things in the future? All of us have the desire to reach our objective as long as we live."
Now is the only time that exists, the past and the future are just a result of how we live in the present time. This is it, a time that we can make a change, in direction, and transform our ways of life, it's not tomorrow but it's now.
"Live this day as if it is your last"
Being alive today is a great blessing that we received, every second matters, as long as we breathe, and can do our usual routine, is already a substantial reason, that we can therefore conclude we are so blessed, it doesn't matter how we look physically, what we wear, what matters most that we are alive. How can we appreciate things if we don't have a life?
Living for a day, inspires us to do things for the better and give our best. Why we should always exert our best effort? Simply because we don't know what tomorrow will bring, and what will happen on the next day.
Our days can be wasted when we will spend them with resentment, and a lot of negative views on life. A day of our life is like a grand moment that we should live as long as it exists, it's too precious, and every second matters. I always remember that our instructor have told us before that with every tickle of the clock there is a person who dies, and there is a baby born. And now, that we are still breathing, we are indeed having a great privilege and opportunity to live.
Tomorrow is out of our control, and even the future, and we didn't know if we can still live tomorrow, the next day nobody knows except the creator. That is why all we have is now.
All we have is now so:
Let's live now with grace
This means we will live with forgiveness and set free our hearts by giving chances to others when they fail us.
I was bothered yesterday morning because my aunt called me too early. In regards to our reunion next month because it's my grandmother's death anniversary. And it was so sad, that the last time that they see each other(her siblings), they have misunderstandings and arguments. A few months later, I learned that they are still not on good terms. It's depressing that a family is not united, time is precious and we don't know what will happen tomorrow, but still, they choose not to forgive each other.
I realized that" Hindi sila dapat gayahin", doesn't initiate them. They are just digging holes in their hearts, but I can feel that they felt heaviness in their hearts but they just don't want to admit their mistakes.
Appreciate every moment
Living in the present and the moment, for now, is what matters, the past have already done, we should not linger without past mistakes and failures instead we live for this day.Don't be too anxious about the future,because it will just come in the right time of our life.Whats important that"ginalingan natin ngayon, at bukas at aanihin ang results ng ating pinaghihirapan", bestow your fairest action, and tomorrow you can harvest what you sow today.
Worry about the future will shorten our life
Ultimately, worries can cause us sickness, that's why it will shorten our days, and we can't enjoy our days of living in the present. But, as long as we are in this human nature,we always have the tendency to worry and be anxious.It's all up to us if we choose to worry or decide to live positively for our good.
We just pass by in this life for once
No replay,no throwback,all we have is a continuous play that we are clueless where to end.
In my life,I have come think not to bother to much about the coming days,but to live what I have,with my family,and enjoy companionship with other people.
What you want to achieve,push it,go for it,as long as you have a day it can be done in the long run of life.
End notes :
Our life now is still in pandemic but gladly ,we are slowly coming back to our normal life,as our student s will be coming back to school next month.We should move on,and live the day for good and forgive yourself,for the past mistakes ,the things that already happened is a part of your story,a lessoned learned, life must go on.
Now is all we have,
Smile now,be happy now,let love grows now, take care of yourself now,accept and embrace yourself ,live freely.
Thanks for dropping here now.
