One day, you’ll do something for the last time.

The last time you hug a loved one without realizing it.

The last late-night drive with your best friend before life pulls you in different directions.

The last meal at your favorite spot before it closes.

The last time you’ll set foot in a city you’ll never be going back to.

The last time you laugh until you cry with people you won’t see again.

The last time you actually hear someone for who they truly are before life hits them with a serious crisis.

The last time you’ll be playing your favourite sport.

The last time you wear your school uniform because you’re done with it.

The last time when you’ll actually enjoy walking or playing in the rain.

The last time you let someone’s behaviour impact you because you’ll learn to stand up for yourself.

You won’t know it’s the last. It won’t feel special in the moment. It’ll feel like any other day. Until it isn’t. So be where your feet are. Look people in the eye. Say what you mean. Feel it fully. Because the ordinary moments? They’re only ordinary until they’re gone. We humans change. Our emotions and feelings towards people, places and things keep changing due to our experiences or the simple fact that we grow up. As the quote goes “You cannot step in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and he’s not the same man.”

Time is ever changing. And you can only go ahead in life when you accept the fact that you literally have to make things happen or else you’ll run out of time. Accept what you want to and say no to what you know isn’t right for you. I miss the simplicity of childhood and the pre technology era. When you never cared about what you wore or what you did, all you did was do what made you happy in that moment. Getting your favourite chocolate or cookie left in the box so you could enjoy it. Everything turns so complicated when you grow up, you literally have access to everything, you can buy anything but that happiness won’t last and it won’t give you butterflies as it did when you were a kid. It was the little things which mattered. Life’s weird now we’re just a bunch of anxious adults with happening and happy pictures on social media whereas the true essence of happiness isn’t there anymore.

Appreciate what makes you happy at the moment before it’s too late✨
