Be here in this moment.  

 

Sometimes the best way to get through the day is to choose to be present and enjoy the moment. Dwelling on things you cannot change or allowing yourself to be consumed by what might happen tomorrow takes away the joy of the moment.  

Children have perfected the skill of living in the moment. For them, only the slide exists and the shear joy they embody as they zip down it. You can live by their example. Focus on the moment as it is happening. Laugh with your loved ones. Scratch your cat behind the ears and sense its pleasure. Rejoice in the success of a friend. Experience the joys of today as if today were the only day you have.   

Action for the day: Be present and find joy in each moment today.

This I truly need to work on.... sometimes we multi-task to the point we "can't" enjoy the moment.
All you have to do is smile and she smiles back.
