Its time to quit squandering your life away!

Fortunes can be lost and regained, love can be rekindled and friends reunited, however once time passes it can never be recovered and your greatest regrets will nearly all coincide with time that was mishandled or simply lost in indifference.

Our natural instinct seems to be to live our lives from one major event to the next. All the time in between these big events seems to be turned into a chore we must endure in order to reach that next great occasion.

The sad truth of living your life this way is that the really exciting parts of life are few and far between. This leaves us wasting the majority of our time here wishing our life away in order to get to the next "Exciting" event.

It seems silly to waste your precious time drudging through the day to day always wishing life will hurry by so you can have those exciting moments. Its interesting to watch people who have really had to face their own mortality. They often seem to have an ability to gain pleasure and fulfillment from the simple yet most important things life has to offer.

Sure that next vacation or promotion will be exciting and fun but they will do very little to fill your heart with the joy and happiness you will receive from spending time appreciating your family or doing something to make others lives a little easier.

The next time you find yourself wishing life would hurry along so that you can have that next fun event please take a moment and connect with a loved one or extend a hand to those in need. You will find that time passes much faster and that your greatest memories are actually the time you spent in between the "big events" of life.
