too many people today forget the true meaning of living.

live- to experience or enjoy life to the full: At 40 she was just beginning to live.

why is that people pass up the things that should mean the most to them in life? its been a long time since i have met someone that appreciated life as much as i do. the things that everyone would pass up, i take extra time to look at, the noises that people ignore because they hear them everyday, i embrace because i know they could be gone in a second, the stars in the sky that no one cares about anymore, i care about more than anything. its just crazy to me that no one can just live anymore, just slow everything down, forget about the clock on the wall, set down the cell phone and just purely live. the definition of living is not to get eaten up by our society, to try to one up on every person you come in contact with, nor is it to ignore the beautiful things God has put here for you to appreciate. i guess the reason im ranting and raving about this is because more than anything im tired of walking down my high school hallway and seeing 9/10 of the people cussing, or saying i hate this, i hate that, or gossiping about someone they call their best friend. i wish all of them, or any of them for the sake of this post would take a walk in my shoes and find out that the true beauty, and enjoyment in life is not going and drinking every night, it is not smoking during lunch, and it is not going against the morals you should set for yourself. more than anything i hope and pray that people will learn to enjoy their surroundings, and embrace the true beauty in life before it all goes away. take a step back, slow your life down, and look a little bit closer on how you view your things.
