The thing so many people never realize is that the most important things in their life are here, now, in this specific moment. At least not until it's too late.
Life is made up of moments and choices. And it's so **** scarily easy to miss the moments of the most important choices and decisions.
I've seen people have the very thing they long for right in front of them, and I've seen them say hold on, just one minute, let me just do this one thing, and then I'm there.
And when they finish that one thing, the only thing they ever really wanted has disappeared before their very eyes.
