Moments That Matters

Golden Moments By John Townsend


Life is a mystery. You do not know what will happen the next moment. Life can be long and can be short. It can be happy and it can be torturous too. Depending on how you look at it, life can be meaningful, it can also be not meaningful at all. The motivating force in life is our loved ones. Yet the opposite is true also — the death of our loved ones can destroy a person life when the person cannot accept the lost of a loved one.

Often when we lost our loved ones, we are filled with regrets and feel remorseful about it. Why? In order to catch up with the pace of society, and to achieve fame, power and wealth, a lot of people are busy climbing up the ladder to reach their dreams. While busy climbing the ladder, they had spent lesser time with their loved ones. They become more impatient and they love money more than kind words of advice. They could be immoral and unrighteous when seeking their own dreams to be fulfilled.

Since life can be so unpredictable, and life is not eternal, why don’t we treasure what we have now instead of pursuing something which we have no control over. No doubt, we need to save for our future, but we also need to maintain a balance in whatever things we do. We must spend equally amount of time for our family, friends and work.

Life is not eternal. We cannot shower our loved ones with love the moment they are dead. When it comes to a love relationship, there is no guarantee to everlasting love also. Our love for our loved one does not cease when they are gone. A true love for our loved ones will always stay in our hearts even when they were ‘gone’ or dead.

A life spent feeling ‘well-spent’ is when you put in your full effort and you know you have done your best in it. When it comes to love, the same thing applies. It takes effort to make a relationship works. You need to watch your words being said to your partner, say the right words and make your partner happy. Saying ‘I love you’ to your partner is not loving your partner when you try to satisfy your sexual desire by seeking another partner. Saying “I love you” means you really mean what you say and you really ‘think’ only of your only loved partner. You are willing to share weal and woes with your loved ones. When you said ‘I love you’, you are prepared to use all your effort and strength, with all your might and spirit, to make the love relationship works. You want to know what your partner like and dislikes. You do not want to disappoint your partner. You would try ways and means to make your partner or spouse happy.

However, for some relationship, a lot of time when you have done all you could to your partner or spouse, yet your partner or spouse did not appreciate you. Breakups, separation and divorce are very common nowadays. When you have put in your effort and you have not done your partner wrong in any way, your conscience is clear, then you treat it as a short course of meal. There is no dessert being served. Go eat another meal. When you never try you never knows. The other meal might be even more delicious than this meal! Even if the relationship did not work out well, at least you know you have done your best.

Life is precious. If you do not know the meaning of life, ask the importance of life to a woman who lost her baby in a miscarriage. Ask the meaning of life to someone who has lost their kins. If you do not know how precious is life, discover the importance of it when you had a life taken away from you.

Treasure life. Treasure all the important people around you. Take good care of yourself so that your loved ones will not feel sad over you. Take good care of your loved ones, treat them well. When sickness strikes or premature death happens to them, you will not be filled with remorse and regret. Life is more meaningful when you know you have contributed your values and service to people around you. Life is more meaningful when you have made the world a better place for everyone around you. Life is meaningful for you if you try your best to serve your love ones with your heart and soul — treat them nicely and make people around you happier.
How the future works out doesn’t matter. It is important to plan for the future. You need to visualize what you want in life. You need to dream for future. However, certain things in our life are beyond our control. Work hard and put effort in fulfilling your dream. Everyday when you have done what you should do, spent every moment of your time well, and the future will work out well itself.

The Future Doesn’t Matter, Every Moment of Life Now Matters.

The future doesn’t matter. Future works out well if you plan and work for it. Dream of what you want. Plan for your future — your retirement income needs, seeking for your life partner or do you wish to be single, your accomodation needs and so on. Money are important in fulfilling most of the needs and for survival of your daily necessities. If you are very clear what you want in the future, then everyday you walk towards your plan for the future. In this way the future will work well by itself. However, many times, we might slack and we never carry out what we plan for. We might not have enough retirement income to maintain our daily living needs at that time. But the future doesn’t matter as compared to now. The most important moment is now. If there’s a will, there’s a way. Even if your plan don’t work out well, there’s always a way out. The only obstacles that is hardest to overcome is your mind. With a positive mindset, a failure can be turn into an opportunity!

Once again, the most important thing is to treasure every moment of your life. The future doesn’t matter. Treasure every moments of life. It matters.
