Life is a Gift: Open and Enjoy It
Life is something truly special, yet so many of us let it slip by unnoticed. It’s crucial to change our perspective and embrace each day as if it were our last.
Breaking Free from the Past
On my dresser sits a bottle of perfume given to me when I was ten. I have a habit of holding onto things, preferring to save them for special occasions. New dresses and trinkets often remain untouched, waiting for an unwarranted perfect moment. This habit reflects a limited mindset: the belief that enjoying something now might detract from future joys.
A Wake-Up Call
Ruth experienced a profound shift in perspective following a shattering phone call. Her sister Jane had passed away unexpectedly. During the sorrowful task of arranging Jane's belongings, Ruth found an exquisite piece of lingerie, never worn, still tagged with its high price?"a memento meant for a special occasion that never came. Her brother-in-law remarked, “Don’t ever save anything for a special occasion. Every day you’re alive is a special occasion!”
Embracing a New Outlook
Inspired by this revelation, Ruth began seeing life differently. She started to enjoy rather than merely endure life. Small yet meaningful changes emerged. She spent more time in her garden, wore her finest perfume on ordinary days, and fixed that long-neglected window. Everyday moments and mundane interactions transformed into special occasions in themselves.
Living Fully
Determined to make the most of every day, Ruth told herself each morning that life is a gift. By embracing this mindset, she started pursuing long-held dreams. Instead of watching others live life, she took action with the empowering mantra, “It’s my turn now.”
Consider Grandma Moses, who began painting at seventy-six, and Golda Meir, who became Prime Minister of Israel at seventy-one. Recently, I met an adventurous woman in her eighties who had been white-water rafting and hiking in the Himalayas. She was eager for her upcoming adventures!
Start Today
Don’t wait for life to force a change in you. Reflect now and choose to live without regrets. As Peter Sage, speaker and entrepreneur, wisely said:
“Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, ‘Wow - What a Ride!’”
Embrace life now. Every day is a gift?"open it and enjoy it.
