Being

“Is it so small a thing to have enjoyed the sun, to have lived light in the spring, to have loved, to have thought, to have done?” – Matthew Arnold

Do we think we have to accomplish something every day? Can we allow ourselves to ‘waste’ time – just being, just seeing, just enjoying? Let’s take a walk today. How about a good book? How about spending time with loved ones or just alone? Just being! Being alive! Breathing, relaxing, and just appreciating the beauty around us.

How can we appreciate our life if we don’t take the time to appreciate non-accomplishment? How can we hear the birds, love that poem, smell that ocean air, if we are too being making excuses for our own existence. Do we need to do things to justify our own existence? Why? Don’t you think that you are worthy of life just because you are alive? God does! Enjoy the world and time he created you to enjoy. Just Being.
