Life happens when you are busy making other plans. Life
begins when you are 21, or 16, or 18, or even 40. Life happens when you
appreciate little things in life. When did life begin?
Life begins when you open your eyes in the morning. Be it on
your own or with someone you love the most. It continues as you drag your feet
to the bathroom and through until you reach your workplace or your school.
It begins when you realize you have to do this everyday,
doing something that you do not enjoy. However, it happens when you see the
faces of your significant other, your children, or your parents. At that moment
you realize that you are doing this not only for yourself but also for them. For
the people you love the most, to put that beautiful smile on them. It happens
when you smile at the thought of them and the thought of them drives you, on
and on.
It begins when you come back home. To the arms of the people
you love and arms of people who love you. You realize that they will always be
there for you. They will accept you in any condition; your best and your worst
and everything in between. They will support you to do what is right and they
will guide you to the light. That is the moment when your life begins.
It happens when you are tired and fed up with all the
routines, all the problems and obstacles that will never go away from your
sight or your mind. It happens when you are annoyed with your schoolmate, dorm mate,
or fellow workers. It happens when you are rejected and down. You realize that
life will never be pretty with flowers and unicorns all the time. You realize
that movies will not be real life, even the ones based on true stories and
such.
That is when life begins and when life happens. Life is every
time you open your eyes and it will never stop even when you close your eyes
every night.
Life is present, life is now;
