17518 - If one day was a lifetime, how would you live it?

Days Left On Earth: 17519

We live like we're immortal under the assumption that there will be enough' time when we might not wake up tomorrow.


The brutal reality is all around us, yet we often choose to ignore it until it's too late.


A top regret of the dying, according to Bronnie Ware, is, "I wish I had not worked so hard."


Ware's words are not pessimistic. They are joyous.


Living under a false assumption of a guaranteed tomorrow means we miss the bliss in the present.


These are not throw-away platitudes; our happiness lives in our ability to pause to smell the coffee.


Here is a radical idea.


What if every day was a lifetime? How would you live it?


Would you hug your loved ones and breath the feeling into your bones?


Perhaps you would savour a moment in nature or stop to smell the roses?


A conversation with a loved one might take on a whole new dimension if it were your last.


Or the small talk with a stranger might be enthused with loving energy that leaves a glow.


If today is your lifetime, how will you live it?
