What Was I Being Told???

There are a lot of phrases with a similar meaning. One time I saw one who is credited to Gandhi: "There are only two days when we can't do anything: yesterday and tomorrow. So let's do everything we can today, what is a blessing, and that is why it is called present". Everytime I saw it, I think in my life and if I am doing everything I want. It is a remind to us to don't let anything for tomorrow. We need to use the time with wisdom because it doesn't came back. Happy mylotting.

That I should live my life to the fullest, with a purpose and full of joy and positivity because we can never rewind every moment that has gone by. :)

I think it is trying to tell us to enjoy today because it will be gone tomorrow and you will never see it again.

I really like this. It is a great way to look at life. Another reason to live each day to the fullest. So glad you shared this today because I really needed it.

Hey there, Marissa, I have to say, I think that is a great quotation. It is true. This moment is the oldest we've ever been and yet the youngest we'll ever be. It's painful and happy and just so true! :o) Who is the writer for credit?

I feel that to be so true. Living life to the fullest is one thing we should be doing. With all the things we've missed because we didn't thought about it, we've wasted a lot of precious time. I didn't have that thought before, because I was taught to learn how to make sacrifices for the ones close to me. That was how the nuns raised me being in a catholic school during my primary school years. Lately though, I have learned from a preacher too that having fun doesn't make us a sinner or doesn't have to make us feel guilty. So right now, I still serve my purpose as a good mother, sister and a friend while I enjoy the goodness and joy that life brings. God didn't want us to suffer serving others. It is up to our strategy how we can deliver a purposeful and fruitful life and at the same time receiving all the benefits of living an enjoyable one.

I read it as meaning stay alive, love life and enjoy each day to the fullest. It could be the last day of one's life and there is always time to celebrate. Also to tell all loved ones how much they are loved.
