I just finished this mixed media painting with the quote "Enjoy this Moment" on it. Because I have lupus and kidney disease and went through a year and a half of chemotherapy for it, I feel much more inclined to make the most of every opportunity. Stand outside a just look at the full moon or swing on the swings too when my daughter does, instead of just watching or pushing her. It's a great reminder that this moment is all we really have; we have to stop thinking about yesterday and we shouldn't always be planning what's coming up. It's an eye opener when you truly think about how we wish away our present moment for something else. Just try to enjoy the one you're in right now. Be present in that. Look into the eyes of someone you're talking to and really listen. Swing on the swings every chance you get.
