The Future is Unpredictable.

We often go through life looking ahead. Work tirelessly in preparation for a better future, for something different along the horizon. As if there is an unwritten rule that if we work hard enough in the current moment then we will be awarded a break ahead. There is a notion within our society that if you work hard enough now the time off in the future will make it worth it. Sometimes when we pile all of our hard work together we leave little to no time for family, friends or ourselves for that matter.  We loose connection through connecting to various external circumstances and the time continues to pass. We continue to plan ahead for the next vacation or upcoming relaxing weekend with an idea of how blissful it will be, whenever that day may come. 

Well, as it turns out, living for the future is risky business. 

There is no certainty in tomorrow, in what your ability then will be. So the lesson becomes to embrace the beauty of each moment in its simplest form. Look deeply into your current days and ask yourself; What pieces of your day to remind you to take a deep breath? Which people in your life do you smile at the sound of their voices? When was the last time you felt truly connected to yourself? 
Reflect on the way you spend your days, the people you surround yourself with. Putting off happiness or quality time with loved ones as something you will do in the future is essentially gambling with the uncertainty of life ahead. 

Find moments of bliss in the mundane. Discover bits of joy in daily life you have created because the future is unpredictable.
