Each Day Is a Gift
“Every day is a gift. A miraculous gift that you are blessed to be given.”
Each day you awake, the first thing that should cross your mind-is not the endless to-do lists, not the busy day you have planned, or what precisely it is you have yet to complete or the things you have not yet done in life..
Every day you wake should be one filled with gratitude, appreciation, and a realization that you have been blessed and gifted yet another day.

We hear it all too often. Appreciate life. Take every day as it comes. Be grateful.
Yet, how often do we actually embrace the realization that life is short? How often do we allow those feelings to truly sink in? To truly take hold of the way we act, see, and experience life as it is?
Probably very rarely.
It seems that the only time many really embrace this realization that life truly is short, and the life you have is a gift, is when an onset of sickness takes hold, a serious life event occurs, or the sudden loss of a love one happens unexpectedly.
When in reality, we should be experiencing, embracing and living with this mentality, with this compassion filled emotions every single day.
Every day we walk out into the world, every day we place our feet on the ground -(literally or figuratively)- is a moment to give thanks. A moment to have appreciation that embodies you in a way you never imagined possible. Because here you stand, you were blessed to be given yet another day.
And that in itself is magical.
When you start to truly see life through that lens of clarity. Those things that once stressed you out, those things that once controlled the way you responded or reacted to different situations (especially when negative.)-seem to dissipate entirely.
Your perception of who you are, and those around you takes a dramatic shift. When you allow yourself to truly embrace the wonder, the beauty and the magic that a simple heartbeat provides, something changes.
Your awareness opens up, You love more fiercely, you appreciate more & you start to live life as it should have always been lived.
You see, many people, every single day, take Advantage of the life they have been given. We wander through life aimlessly, rolling through the motions that come, coasting through the days as if we have years to live, when yes we may, but this perception is not always promised.
“Choose to treat every single day like it was your last."
Life is too short to let it pass you by. Cherish it. Embrace it. & Send that love inwards and outward.
We on a regular basis, tend to take advantage of all that we have been blessed to have. The world around us persists, yet how often do we really whole heartedly stop to admire it?
How often do you truly stop to Count the blessings that you currently DO have in life. How often do you truly tell those you care about in life, how much they mean to you?
Honestly, how often do you wake up with that realization that this day, your breath, your heart, your ability to have woken up, is all a gift you are being given to cherish?
Your answer should be every day. Because in reality it should be.
Tomorrow is not promised, but today is.
When you choose to wake up every day viewing life in that manner, viewing life with that idea, that realization of,
It allows a shift in your mentality to occur. It allows you to view the life you are being given in a more positive manner and opens doors where there was once simply a wall.
When you let yourself truly embrace the life that is- choosing to make the best of each moment, choosing to see the life you have through a lens of gratitude, appreciation, and magic.- It is then that you wake up, and then that you TRULY live.
When you choose to do this daily, you allow yourself the ability to embrace and appreciate all that currently is.
and re-opens your eyes to seeing all the beauty that truly persists.
When you allow yourself to be driven by anger or stress, or allow these negative emotions to control how you view yourself-and those around you. You burden yourself and ultimately deprive yourself of really experiencing the life that currently IS.
You do not give yourself that chance to experiencing life in all it’s glory. You miss out on feeling whole and do not allow yourself to truly love as you should be.

Not each day is promised to you. So do not take that for granted. Choose to see things through a lens of love, and choose to see the gift you are being gifted every single day.
Understand that this life you have, is one of the best gifts that is being given to you, and learn to be aware of this often and regularly.
Then, extend that outward.
Tell those you care about how much they mean to you.
Hug the one’s In your life that hold a strong space in your heart. Reminding them about how important they truly are to you and how important their life is as well.
Make memories that will last a life time.
Don’t sweat the small stuff. Honestly, it’s wasted energy. Don’t get mad about something small, don’t get warped into the chaos that is beyond you. Appreciate and reflect than extend that love outward.
Open your eyes to seeing the world as it is, seeing life through a unique and magical lens
Slow down. Stop rushing through as if you have years to live, this is not guaranteed, but the moment at hand is. Embrace that.
Remember, this life is all you got. A magical, wonderful gift to you. So breathe that in every moment you can.
You are here for a reason, and even if you don’t yet know the reason, just know that the life you lead is special, unique and beautiful in it’s own way.
“Each day you wake, is a miracle. A gift you are being given, one that allows you to freely and lovingly walk upon this earth yet another day.”
This life was crafted beautifully and special just for you. Not every day is promised, & not every day will be as perfect as we all would like, but that should never steer you from truly appreciating the life that is.
Inhale the world around you, the life you currently have in all it’s wonderous glory.
Materialistic things hold little value to your life, understand that, absorb that and live by that. Feel the essence and wonder that this life truly possesses. And extend it outward.
Make a mental note to move forth with eyes wide open, and an emotional connection to it all. Love Endlessly, laugh until your stomach hurts, and walk each day as if it was your last.
It’s a magical world out there, and it’s YOUR time to truly see and appreciate that for all that it really is. Everyday you wake, is something to celebrate.
Remember that.
As you live, you learn. As you grow, you can either take what was learned as an opportunity for positive change, or allow it to diminish. That choice is always yours. The possibilities are endless. Choose to be kind, choose to grow.
