There is a saying, “Life is a journey, not a destination.” This refers to the experience of LIVING<\/em> each and every moment of each and every day. <\/p>\n

The purpose of one’s life is not to get to some specific place in a given period of time. Life is not about “arriving” or “getting there” or putting off enjoyment until your “ship comes in”. <\/p>\n

Your ship comes in everyday. The simple fact that you are able to awaken each morning — with a brand new 24 hours to experience — indicates that you are alive! In this new day, you have a myriad of experiences offered to you. You — as are all of us — are being offered a priceless gift. This priceless gift is the gift to see and hear and smell and taste and touch the amazing sights and smells and sensations and sounds and tastes that surround you. <\/p>\n

You can ignore them. You can get on “automatic pilot” and slog through the day, without awareness. You can remain unaware of any of this. <\/p>\n

Or, you can take time to soak in all of the beauty around you. You are being presented them by your senses, on a moment-to-moment basis. They are there — for you to delight in — each moment, all day long.<\/p>\n

The choice is yours: How are you<\/strong> going to experience this day?<\/p>\n
