If you only had the next 24 hours left…
Mar 10, 2024
If you only had 24 hours live, and said, “I love you” to everybody you wanted to, for what would you be thankful?
If you had time to think about what it was about your life that you were thankful and grateful for, my question to you would be, on the contrary, what would be the thing that you would regret?
What would be your biggest regret? If you were thinking back on your life, you only have 24 hours to live, what do you wish you had done?
What would be the most significant thing in your life that you wish you had done? Or what do you regret or resent that you did not do?
Too many of us take for granted that we have tomorrow.
You think back to your life. You can think back to your life as much as you want, but you are never going to get that back. And to be honest, you cannot really rely on tomorrow happening either.
Yes, chances are, it is going to happen, but you cannot really rely on it happening as well.
So, the only real thing you could do, the only real thing that you know you are sure of is what is happening to you right now.
The present is the only thing that we know, we can change what we can affect. right?
So, today, what is going on today? Are you having an awesome day?
The next time you feel anger, will you be able to stop, and think about if the events are making you angry will matter in a day, will it matter in a week?
Will the anger make you resent or regret something if you only had 24 hours left?
Too many of us, yours truly included, focus on the things that are not going right. We focus on the things that are making us feel sad, that are making us feel angry, but we rarely think about what makes us happy.
Will you be grateful for life?
Tomorrow may not come. Be grateful for today.
You cannot change yesterday; you can learn from yesterday.
You cannot predetermine the future; but you can control some outcomes from what you learned from yesterday.
But you only have today. You can only count on today. So, what will you do today?
