when the world hands you shaping experiences you become vividly aware of how temporary life is.
the cliche "don't sweat the small stuff" becomes something to live by,
because it's truly all small stuff.
on travels like this I think of my dad and what he'd think if he knew all I've done with my life.
freshly 22 and I feel I just started to live.
I've started cherishing every small interaction or smile because each passer by becomes apart of a unique larger experience you get to live out on this earth.
romanticize the idea of your morning coffee, or your commute home from work.
take every bump in the road as an opportunity to practice patience.
live through your heart instead of your head.
life will not wait for you, it's happening here and now.
things will pass you by whether you are ready or not.
so regardless of the situations impacting you whether it's for seconds, months or years - jump in and let yourself feel it.
