It's that time of the semester again, when many of us are beginning to realize it's already the sixth week (!) of classes and deadlines are right around the corner. I can't believe how fast the time has flown by! Don't they always say, "Time flies when you're having fun?" Although I am enjoying my semester, it surprises me that this entire school year seems to be passing by faster than the 11 fun filled weeks I spent in Laos last summer.
I've been realizing that the reason why time seems to go so fast during the school year is because I am always thinking about which assignments are due when, where will I be over the summer, where will I live next year, and sometimes wondering how I can best prepare for a future career. As students, we are constantly forced to think of what is ahead. But as we push ourselves to get through the week to reach the weekend, we forget to enjoy so many of our days.
This week, I challenge you to live each day for today and not tomorrow. Take some time to slow down, and try to make the journey as important as the destination.
enjoy~

Great advice. It's so true, we think about the future so much and let the present slip away. Thanks for the post!
