Now I'm living for today. For the moment. This life has so much to offer and if we don't spend each second enjoying what we have, it'll all be gone before we know it.
I used to dread Mondays (sometimes I still do) but I am trying to change that. I used to always be waiting and waiting. Waiting for Friday or waiting for the weekend. Waiting for my birthday or whatever holiday was up next. Waiting for my shift to be over so I could go home and nap, or go out with friends. Waiting to finish up an assignment or take a test. Waiting for that boy to text back or for that grade to post. Waiting for something that was inevitably (or not) in the future. Because nothing is guaranteed you know. Maybe that boy never texts you back or your weekend wasn't as exciting as you had hoped. Maybe you end up disappointed, all because you had waited so intently for so long.
That is why I have decided to savor each moment for what it is, even if it ends up being less than favorable. Each moment will add up to those monumental days. Even when they may seem insignificant at times, one day you will look back and realized how everything fell together. You don't have to necessarily go searching for meaning in every insignificant detail, but appreciate every second you're given.
Even on "the worst day ever," there is still something to appreciate and be thankful for. So live for now and stop waiting. Things will come with time. The future will be here before you know it, and then it will be gone. Until next time xxx.
