Savour Every Moment

I believe that we receive an invitation every day to savour every moment of our life.

Savour Every Moment

I know that smoking is not good for the health, but have you watched regular smokers? They draw on every puff, inhaling deeply. I always feel that every puff for them is an experience that they truly savour! Not the best example, I know, but perhaps we can learn from them.

We must take in every moment, squeeze all the joy out of it, experience all the emotions that the moment is calling us to have. If you are laughing, then laugh from deep within – belly laughs, they call it. If you are grieving, then by all means cry your heart out – allow yourself to feel the depth of grief.

Too often we allow the hours to pass by in whirr of activity not stopping to take in things. We don’t eat mindfully, we don’t take the time to make meaningful conversation and we spend too little time doing the things we love. We need to start living our life in moments – taking it all in and allowing the beauty of life to wash over us.

Let’s consciously make time to savour life today – and every day!

Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.
