SEIZE THE MOMENT.....

Day by day I am learning the meaning of the words "seize the moment"......because I realize we each have so much time here on earth and it is up to each of us to use that time to our fullest ability.  We must value ourselves and take charge of our own lives......it took me a very long time to learn this.....and thank goodness before it was too late.  Take self-esteem......it is simply accepting ourselves as we are rather than demanding we be all we are capable of becoming......wrinkles, warts, extra pounds.....we must value our basic package of who we are simply because we breathe.  Self-esteem has nothing to do with achieving or producing or even becoming.......but rather it is that all encompassing  sensation of feeling acceptable, capable, and most of all loveable simply because we breathe.

So many of us die long before we're buried.......Life is filled with opportunities to value ourselves.  We must be careful not to focus too intensely on the future or too regretfully in the past.   Valuing ourselves comes only in the present tense......Sometimes we deceive ourselves into believing that there will always be another time.....it is simply not so. As your love for yourself increases, so will your love for others......to love others sparks the ultimate motive within all charactered people to serve and survive.
