We plan for years in the future throwing away the present moment for the promise of future happiness. There is no such thing as delayed gratification. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s now or never. Sadly many people never find happiness because they believe they have to do all this stuff they really don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want to do before they can do what they really want to do. No one knows how long they will be around on this planet. Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t give up today for yesterday or tomorrow. Appreciate life as the mystery, the miracle and the gift that it is.
