Life is Meant to Enjoy

"We, like the birds, are meant to fly and sing -- that's all --- and all of our plans and schemes are twigs of nest that, once outgrown, we leave." Mark Nepo

As humans we tend to make plans, set goals, strive; and that is not all bad -- but, it can take us from the pure joy of living.  Watch the birds and animals in nature.  They live in the moment.  They eat when food is available.  They do not seem to worry if there will still be food left for the next meal.  They observe and adapt to what is.  We can learn a lot from them.  Many of our goals and plans will never come about. We can have intentions we are aiming at in life, but perhaps it is best to not lock ourselves in to the way we think things should be.  Today let us just enjoy the day and who we are with and what situation is before us.
