A new day is never promised and should not be taken advantage of. The present is the most important thing. Sure, the memories of the past and the aspirations of the future hold a high value, but the focus should be centered on the here and now. A life could pass by without accomplishing anything, and for some, this would be enough and go unnoticed. Each moment in life is granted for the purpose of making a difference, being kind, and doing something that brings happiness to life. To neglect the significance of a single second, minute, hour, or day is an unjust act of living or lack thereof. Life is tough. But defining the meaning of life: that is tougher. Society makes this a complicated task to face. In a world of universalism, individualism is a unique trait and considered a taboo. There are expectations to be met and standards to uphold. It is time to break the mold, see the world from different perspectives, and make the most of every moment before it is gone. This is not, by any means, going to be easy and plenty of obstacles will try to stand in the way of discovery. Life has so much to offer; if people would take a step away from norms and traditions, the world could open up and expose hidden and metaphorical treasures. Right when a person feels defeated, that is the very moment a person should be inspired to prove society wrong. Defeat should be the greatest motivator to make a change. This pivotal moment could exhibit the ultimate potential a life holds. It is like a porthole to what the soul has desired all along. This is the perfect time to take the leap. Now is as good as ever to change the path to the future. What a person does today will directly impact the course of tomorrow. Every minute that goes by is a minute that could absolutely change a person’s life. Live for today and act like it will be the last. Find meaning in the little things, for they will be the catalysts for assigning the meaning of life. Lessons will be uncovered in unexpected ways in the least likely of places. The most of every breath of life should be cherished and utilized. With each ‘cannot,’ ‘will not,’ and ‘do not,’ have an ‘I can,’ ‘I will,’ and ‘I do’ to pair self-positivity to societal negativity. Positivity far outweighs negativity and makes facing the task of living a fulfilling life that much easier. The pressures of society should not compromise a person’s own convictions, nor should they invite a person to fall into the worldly patterns. Be different. Be an individual. Life is beautiful, and it can only be appreciated if it is being lived with meaning. There are no greater words than carpe diem to serve as a constant reminder to seize the day.
