We complain or feel mortified about death if we haven’t truly lived.
The notion of “having truly lived” can be very different for people. Ultimately, it boils down to what we value the most, or how we value what we’ve been given. These values drive us, motivate us, and give our lives meaning and purpose.
Most times though “existing” gets in the way. We forget that we’re dying everyday.
So today will have to be a value-driven day.
Try recalling to mind what you value the most, then structure your day around that.
- Health (good)
- Peace (of mind / in your heart)
- Good work. Something you can be proud of.
- Relationships (quality over quantity)
- Knowledge / Wisdom
- Bursts of good, beautiful and happy memories.
Think about it, a moment gone is now just a memory.
