Embrace every moment

Today is my nephew’s second birthday. I can hardly believe that he is already two years old. So many things have transpired since he was born. I have changed so much as well as the world around me has seemed to undertaken a complete metamorphosis. I feel that as an individual I have matured a lot and have become more responsible. I also have acquired a new perspective in life. I have learned to embrace every moment because I have a limited amount of time to live. I have learned not to rush, especially when it comes to driving, because I would rather be two minutes late than never get to that place and end up in the hospital instead. I have also learned how important it is to use positive and uplifting words rather than using words that will tear someone down. There are so many things that have taken place in my life that have taught me very important lessons, most of which I wish that I had learned a few years earlier and some I wish that I didn’t have to learn them in the way that I did. In the light, I have learned that in life, you get what you get, and there is only one thing you can change about that. That one thing is your perspective and how you handle each situation. Yeah, life stinks sometimes but there are other times when things couldn’t get better, it’s just life.
