Don’t wish your time away

This is often what my Mother said to me when I wished I was a little older, out of school, or had challenges behind me. From experience, I later learned she was right. Whether we have a fixation on future time or past time, the result is the same. We miss the good things about our present time.

The skill of focusing on and living in the present is one way to cherish time. Unfortunately, it is not practiced by many until they are older and see their time running out. Look for the good in your garden of today’s time. It’s there to be relished.
