As I sit here at age 26 I can not stop wondering when my life will end. Will my last day of living be the day I die, or will I just one day stop and allow life to pass me by. Will I one day get so caught up in the future that I am only physically here in the present?
I would like to think I have always lived my life like I only had one. But that is not true. But in fact, we all only have one life to live. What choices will I make today that will change my life tomorrow. What moments will become significant to me? When will I need the strength of others to help me through unbearable times? Will I always feel loved and secure?
I am more aware of what I fear most about living. Its not the fear of dying, but the fear of not enjoying the moment. To look around at my life and enjoy the moments that are taking place right now. I am here - living. I will no longer plan for my future, but prepare for it. I promise I will not wish for things I do not need and love the things that I have. I will cherish every moment I have in my life and allow myself to enjoy the company of my friends and family more.
