Stop moving so fast, and stop to enjoy the beautiful, precious, and wonderful moments that life has to offer.

Being happy can happen when you let yourself enjoy the moment, and in order to enjoy the moment, one needs to stop moving, and look around and take a deep breathe of fresh air, and realize what beauty surrounds us. I just feel like in our society today, we are always running and staying busy, always doing something. In the process of it all, when we stop for that one second, we sometimes come to realize that we are alone and unhappy. This is why living in the moment is so important, and is so crucial to enjoying life.

To start this journey, just stop, and think of something that you saw, or have seen (anywhere), that makes you happy, and find ways to enjoy it. Go out there, and dance to the music all over the house, or sing on top of your lungs. Or just think of something that makes you happy, whether it something you did with someone, or maybe someone you love, and go call them, see them, and tell them you love them, or relive that beautiful memory. Whatever it may be, just do it. 

Today I learned that we need to enjoy the beautiful and happy moments, because before we know what happened, we blink, and our life has gone by, in a shade of “gray”. Those that we love(d) are gone, and its just a moment too late.

Don’t forget to tell the people you love, that you love them, today might just be the last day you get that chance. I am not trying to be a pessimist, or to even scare you from living, but life can sometimes throw surprises our way, that we least expect, so do what is important.

1. Stop and enjoy the moments that make you smile.

2. Tell the people in your life that you love, that you do in fact love them.

3. Live each day happily.

…and enjoy every moment to the fullest, without a single regret.
