Seeing gold
I went to bed at 3:30am, after good conversations and good times with good friends. As I lay there it occurred to me that this is a golden period of our lives. We have no children yet to worry about, and we don't really miss having them because we don't know what it is like. Our parents are all four well, alive, healthy and happy. Our family is generally well and happy, with equilibrium maintained for a long time (no recent deaths or new illnesses). We are financially comfortable without too many cares in our lives, have all our sensory experiences, the energy of youth and yet the growing experience of age.
Some day down the road we are going to look back on today and feel that we were so young and innocent and still relatively carefree. And we are going to wish that we could come back to this time in our lives.
There's a deep sense of appreciation that comes from this thought. I feel obligated to relish the moments of my day.
