In the Flow with Healing Waters
Don’t leave anything for later
“Later, the coffee gets cold. Later, you lose interest. Later, the day turns into night, Later, people grow up. Later, people grow old. Later, you regret not doing something when you had the chance.
Life is a fleeting dance, a delicate balance of moments that unfold before us, never to return the same way again.
Regret is a bitter pill to swallow, a weight that bears down upon the soul with the burden of missed chances and unspoken words.
So, let us not leave anything for later. Let us seize the moments as they come, with hearts open and arms outstretched to embrace the possibilities that lie before us. For in the end, it is not the things we did that we regret, but the things we left undone, the words left unspoken, the dreams left unfulfilled.”
For most of us, the words above will resonate with you. Missed opportunities, regrets, or thinking there’s time to do something later can cause unrest within. Take time this week to do something you’ve been putting off. You won’t regret it.
The above excerpt is from Before the Coffee Gets Cold. A 2015 novel by Toshikazu Kawaguchi.
Changing “later” into “now” in the flow,
