As I look back over my life alot of things that once mattered are no longer relevant... As a child I didnt realize things change and people change. I was comfortable living in the moment back then, I was my happiest as an adolescent. At 24 years old I often wonder... How can I get back in the moment? How can I live in the present without thinking about the past or the future? Time is not only measured in hours and minutes... it's measured by experience. The act of living itself takes up time.... we're here now, we're experiencing life! I find that I attack myself because I was taught there's a certain way to live and utilize time. Now I totally disagree. The timing of my life has everything to do with a higher power so I've decided to stop taking advice! The reason we believe we're suppose to do certain things, live a certain way, think a certain way is because we listen to other people's advice. As I mentioned, I was my happiest as a child. I dont recall anyone telling me how I should wear my hair, what I should like to do or who I should be. As a child I didn't ask for advice either.... I simply did what made me happy at that moment rather it was writing in my diary, playing with make-up, literally whatever made me happy. There are people who are trained to give advice and they are called psychiatrists. Friends, family and social media dont count! You are wasting your time abiding by other people's expectations. Not all advice is rooted with ill intentions... but are you living for you or them? Time is short. Stop taking advice.
