THE TIME IS NOW
We convince ourselves that life will be better
when we are married, have a baby, then another.
Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough
and we will be more content when they are.
After that we're frustrated
that we have teenagers to deal with.
We will certainly be happy when
they are out of that stage.
We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when
our spouse gets his or her act together,
when we get a nicer car,
are able to go on a nice vacation,
when we retire.
The truth is that there is no better time than now to be happy.
If not now, when?
Your life will always be filled with challenges.
It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway.
Treasure every moment you have.
Treasure it more because you shared it with someone special,
special enough to spend your time with. . .
and remember that time waits for no one.
So stop waiting until you finish school,
until you go back to school,
until you lose ten pounds,
until you gain ten pounds,
until you get married,
until you get divorced,
until Friday night,
until Sunday morning,
until you get a new car or home,
until your new car or home is paid off,
until spring,
until fall,
until winter,
until summer,
until you are off welfare,
until the first or fifteenth,
until your song comes on,
until you have had a drink,
until you have sobered up,
until you die,
until you are born again,
to decide that there is no better time than right now
to be happy.
Happiness is a journey, not a destination.
Work like you don't need money
Love like you have never been hurt
And dance like no one is watching.
