A long time ago I set a reminder on my computer to tell me now and then to love life.
The computer is gone now, replaced by newer computers, and the software has been replaced by other programs, but the goal is the same – to pause from the routine and remind myself to enjoy the moment.
In the past I have been guilty of concentrating so much on work, or so much on my problems, or so much on money that I missed out on what was going on around me. Even after all that I’ve been through I still need a reminder now and then to tell me to take a look around and relish it.
Today that reminder popped up on my phone, and so I’ll take a little time during the day to think back and think forward, but also take a look at today and where I am. It’s in a pretty good place.
