Live In The Moment

Date Published: 11/29/2016

As a high school senior, I have recently noticed my classmates saying things such as "I can't wait to get out of this place!" and "I'm so done with high school." These types of things make me wish for people to live in the moment, and to stop rushing through life.



 



There will come a day when we will be wishing to be back in high school, I can guarantee it. I wish everyone could realize that and love the moment they are currently in. I would like people to enjoy where they are and what they are doing, rather than worrying about where they will be and what they will be doing.



 



But this doesn't just apply to high schoolers, there are people of all ages just trying to rush through the day and never embracing the moments they are in. Everyone needs to realize that every moment is precious, because one day we won't have these moments anymore.



 



People are constantly stressing about everything, and letting those stresses detract them from their daily lives. Those stresses won't matter soon enough, but missing life's most important moments will. I wish that people could stop for a minute and realize that the moment they are living in is worth embracing, that time doesn't need to go faster, it is already going too fast as it is.
