“We are so busy watching out for what’s just ahead of us that we don’t take time to enjoy where we are.” ~Calvin & Hobbes
People spend a lot of time planning out their future. They think about what they are going to do, what job they are going to have, where they are going to live, what car they are going to drive, whether or not they are going to get married and have a family, and how to save money for retirement.
I’m not saying that planning ahead and being prepared is a bad thing because it not. But there comes a point when you need to stop planning your life and start living it.
How much of the present are we wasting by thinking about the future?

This is a really good post!! I think its really important to plan but I agree completely, if you spend your whole life planning, when will you have time to do the things you planned. Life is a precious gift and so often we are so busy trying to move faster and faster ahead that we don't stop to enjoy the blessings we have. Great Post!! :)
