“You don’t beat the reaper by living longer, you beat
the reaper by living well and living fully.”
R a n d y Pau s c h
What if you lived your life like this morning was the last
time you woke up? What if today was the last time you saw
a sunrise, heard the rain fall, admired the moon and stars in the
sky, listened to the birds, walked in the woods, sat in traffic, kissed
your spouse, or had dinner with your family? Imagine looking at
everyday life like that, like it was the last day, the last time. Make
no mistake, someday (hopefully a long way off) it will be the last
time. You have an expiration date, you just do not know when. Life
will go on without you. Everything is transient. But while you are
here, you should live life fully. I don’t mean going sky diving or cliff
jumping. I mean finding joy and beauty in ordinary everyday things.
Appreciating what you have. Be grateful. By thinking “this might
be the last time,” you shine a new light on the way you see things.
This change in perspective allows you to fully embrace life-no longer
taking things for granted.
