I know this is not the right time for me to update this blog. Albeit the exit conference had just been concluded, humongous tasks are yet to be done, e.g., finish the annual audit report and organize working papers (agencies of both my regular and special assignments), among others.
It is just that, I could not resist featuring immediately in my blog of what I have been pondering on since I read it from the post of Christine Reyes in her Instagram account just yesterday. What I was referring about was what I think to be an excerpt of The Power of Now book, quoted below:
"So many of us have acquired and taught of the notion that happiness is a destination that we must work and pay with our bodies hours of work to live and acquire unnecessary material desires that we must work hard for the future with our reward always just around the corner or just up the next step. Everything was for tomorrow but never came. Then we realize we never really lived at all. We are all trained to be racing all the time. Everything was for the future. Why wait? When we can be truly be at peace right now? Why wait to be forgiven? When we can forgive now? Why wait then to be happy? To be with each other? And to be alive? Right now is the best time to love, to forgive, to be with loved ones. To be alive. Nobody in human history has ever in a death bed and requested to see their diplomas, cars, money or accomplishments one last time! We always ask to see people for our last request. Embrace.. Kiss them now. Your true power is NOW."
Agree? ;)
