Do not let the day slip through your fingers
But live it fully now
This breath, this moment catapulting you into full awareness
Time is precious, minutes disappearing like water into sand
Unless you choose to pay attention
Since you do not know the number of your days
Treat each as if it is your last
Be that compassionate towards yourself
That open and loving to others
That determined to give what is yours to give
And to let in the energy and wonder of this world
Experience all the necessary tasks of life as if for the first time
Pushing nothing away as if unimportant
You have received the same reminders many times before
This time take them into your soul
For if you choose to live this way
You will be rich beyond measure
Grateful beyond words
And the day of your death will come with no regrets
