Enjoying today, part of our dream life of tomorrow

I was watching the beautiful spring flowers in the valley during my hike sometime last year. The whole valley was flooded with the bright yellow color of California poppy flowers. The air was crisp. I was enjoying every breath as my eyes feasted on the glorious vista.

At that time, it struck me.  

What would – people who have got everything in life would do in this situation? What would he or she do – whose life is a model for me in this situation?

The answer was immediate in my mind. If they were standing here right now, they would see and experience the same thing. There would be no difference between me and that individual in terms of experience.

This started a whole new way of looking at my life and my daily/weekly routine.  I realized – that whatever I am aspiring to get or who I am trying to be, I will always have such things as having time in nature or walking.   

I started adding all the routines I have in my life – my time to eat or relax or brush my teeth.

Lying on my bed, with my eyes closed – I figured that no matter what height I reach in my life, this time will always be there.

Based on my situation, I felt that 40% to 50% of my life is already the way it will be when I will reach my cherished goal or will be the person I want to be.

Why not you enjoy those times fully?  It is like nature has already given me the time to enjoy starting now.

It dawned on me that I will never enjoy these moments if I do not start enjoying them today.

These days I try to remember this and do my best to truly enjoy these moments. I found that it is not easy. The mind always finds a way to be distracted or worry about something. Yet I feel that I need to be able to enjoy this.

A big part of our life – our daily/weekly routine will continue to be the same. We must enjoy them. I am not sure as to what percentage of your life is similar to when you achieve whatever goal you want to – I am sure there will be some percentage and I will bet it is not insignificant. This is a bonus and a gift from life. Let us soak in the delight of this time.
