The World Keeps Movin' so Live Now!
That's what my five year old told me in the car the other day. You see she is at the stage where she is trying to figure things out. Lately she has had a lot of questions about heaven and God. "Daddy", she'll ask," Where do we go when we leave earth?" So of course I tell her heaven. Then in that five year old wisdom she says," The World will keep movin' when we die." The father in me wanted to tell her yes but we will be missed and our family & friends will always remember us. Now I know that's true but I did realize that she was right, the world keeps movin' after we die. Family and friends will be remiss and certainly be sad but day after day, month after month their lives will have to keep moving. So my five year old daughter made me realize we need to LIVE NOW!
Don't take life for granted! Live for your happiness now. If you are sitting there unhappy in your current life situation you have a duty to yourself to LIVE NOW! Don't live for yesterday when you were disappointed by someone you love or you lost your job. Don't live for tomorrow when you MAY get the new promotion or when you finally take that vacation. LIVE NOW! Live for the moment. Start the process of finding your calling today! Look for your new career now. Start your spiritual journey right now.
My grandmother says that you know not the time nor the hour when you will be called home to the great beyond. If that's the case I choose to LIVE NOW!
God Bless,
Kevin
