Seize The Moment

There are three moments in a person's life where they are celebrated. The first one is the time you were born. This is when you begin to cry out loudly upon breaking free from your mother's womb, and everyone around you begins to celebrate your arrival. Such moments are always yours, ones that can even bring tears of joy to the expectant parents.

For most of us, we would have loved to remain a child, considering how beautiful those moments were. Moments when you are pampered, cuddled, and treated nicely with care in all aspects of life. The hard times in life make us wish for our childhood days. Who wouldn't like to be given a preferential treatment and feel like a king? Childhood is often a time of innocence and being cared for.

It's natural to look back fondly on those simpler days. However, the next stage brings exciting new experiences too! in time, we transition from our childhood to adulthood. As we grow, we begin to pursue different aspirations. This is where we start to define ourselves and make our mark on the world.

Graduation, getting a dream job, marrying all become great moments that call for celebration. These moments are celebrated because they show how far we've come and the struggles we've overcome. I guess most people have already been celebrated in this time, especially those who are married. Marriage is a significant institution, and building a family is a source of great joy.

Marriage celebrations mark the start of a new chapter, filled with love and support from friends and fam. It's also a time, which I believe many wish could last forever, especially when you find true love. The sad reality is, nothing in life lasts forever. It's saddening to realize that with time, those you've become fond of will be separated from you.

This is one reason why it's important to cherish and enjoy every moment as it lasts, not when it's passed. The last moment when people are celebrated comes following their demise. It's a moment when you are hopefully celebrated for your achievements. Life is filled with unfairness, and it's interesting to see how most of our heroes get celebrated after they are gone, rather than while they were alive, interesting, don't you think?

This is why it makes sense to live in the moments of all times and periods which call for celebration. Most of us were unconscious until childhood, so we never saw how our parents really cared for us and showered us with the nicest treatments. If we were conscious of those moments, I guess we would have enjoyed them more.

But today, wherever we may find ourselves, there are still many things that can give us reason to celebrate. Go find them and be happy, and don't always wait for people to celebrate you. Celebrate your own achievements, live life to the fullest, and don't just exist. why wait for others to celebrate you, take time to acknowledge your own accomplishments and find ways to bring joy into your life.
