Our time is limited, but our gratitude is infinite.

“🎵Every time you hold me
Hold me like this is the last time
Every time you kiss me
Kiss me like you’ll never see me again 🎵
When I wrote ‘Like You’ll Never See Me Again,’ it was my heart reminding me to live every moment like it’s your last.” — Alicia Keys
You’ve heard it before: life is short. Savoring the smallest of moments is a part of making the most out of your time on Earth. It’s a simple truth, but it’s also easy to forget in a world full of distractions. Anxiety can make us worry about the future, while mulling over the past can keep us from seeing what’s new. Alicia’s reminder to you? Be present and passionate. This isn’t exclusive to romantic partners; it’s a mindset to apply to how you live your life.
Slow down to appreciate your breathing. Wake up earlier to catch that sunrise. Set boundaries to conserve your energy for creative pursuits. Take in the gifts the universe offers by recognizing that moments, gestures, and words are gifts. A little bit of gratitude makes these gifts more visible and easier to spot with time. And don’t forget to say thank you to your body, your friends and family, and yourself for all the ways they show up for you. Allowing yourself to be fully seen, loved, and in the present moment is a daily devotional and a soulcare practice you can start now in your gratitude journal.
You deserve to live your best life. Let us know what you’re feeling grateful for today. Leave your thank you note in the comments!
