One day you’ll realize ...

One day you’ll realize there are too many dishes in your cupboard.
One day you’ll notice there are too many rooms in your house.
One day you’ll find yourself keeping the TV on just to fill the silence.
One day you’ll realize you have to make an effort to fill your days.
And then you’ll remember when twenty-four hours weren’t enough to get everything done,
when you locked yourself in the bathroom just to find a moment of silence,
when dirty dishes and glasses piled up in the sink,
when the whole house was full of life - your children’s lives.
And you’ll remember how much you wished for time to pass quickly,
for your little ones to grow up and become independent.
The days won’t always be so chaotic and messy:
silence will return, and so will free time.
And then you’ll miss all that chaos,
which was nothing more than life at its most beautiful.

Don’t wait for tomorrow

Life is filled with joy and hardship. 

This is a great truth, so make sure every day you spend time doing one thing that brings you joy and a smile to your face.

Today choose to do one thing that will bring you laughter and peace in your heart.

Don't wait until everything in your life is sorted out, and then you will relax and enjoy your day. No! Find moments of fun and happiness now. Don’t wait for tomorrow.

The reality and truth that “no one is guaranteed tomorrow” is etched in my consciousness.

The way you live life is changed forever when you realize the ordinary moments of life are an extraordinary gift.

(The average life expectancy is 78 years, while the retirement age is 65. We work for 50 years to maybe enjoy 11. Start enjoying life now. No one is guaranteed tomorrow.
