The best phase of Life is "This Second"



Many times people from all walks of life talk about what their life had been ,what is it in present and how they imagine it should be in future. Most of the time each one of us  keep thinking about our past and keep imagining the future.This happens with all of us.

However, what we forget is our present.We fail to enjoy our moment of each breath that we inhale.We count the hours and minutes but we forget the seconds. If you think deeply, it is the seconds which are more important to live and enjoy than the minutes,hours,days, years, centuries etc.

The present second needs to be enjoyed. One needs to live what what one is doing during the present second. We do not have any idea what could happen the next second.Everytime people say this line. Forget what is going to happen it is not in your hands .LIVE your present second to the fullest extent possible .Dance,laugh,enjoy,eat,drink,make merry,read,write,work.Do whatever and anything you like but make each second of your Life as your most memorable experience. You get life in your present avatar only once so look at doing things which will make you happy.

And do not think too much. Travel back to your child hood days. Go through the memory lane. Do you think anything happened the way you wanted the things to be. The BIG answer is NO. You are, what you are because you were destined to be at the place and situation where you are right now. So now you see on how many seconds which you could have enjoyed got wasted. Of course you did enjoy some of them but by default. Most of the seconds were just washed away. Although you lived but the seconds died for want of freshness and energy.

Do, whatever you can do, within your powers to improve life of yours and others without any expectations. BUT do it this second. The moment you start thinking the opportunity is lost and the second is gone forever from the BANK OF LIFE. Seconds are like pennies but with a huge difference. Pennies in the material form can be accumulated and spent some other time. But your Life Seconds pennies cannot. They just get spent.Whether,you want or not it is not in your hands to hold the present second. It has to go and be replaced by the next life second. So when you cannot hold why waste. ENJOY!!! every bit of it for your own good and for the good of others close to you.
But this would need determination and a conscious effort .There are certain steps which would enable you to start practicing “ I enjoy my life every second “ :

  • Firstly, do away with all the negative feelings.
  • Stop thinking about the past. Forget.
  • Think less of future.
  • Concentrate more on present.
  •  Smile more often.


Do not hold yourself. Most of the time we are suppressing our feelings due to some reason or other. This action of ours actually tune our body and thinking pattern negatively. If you have something to say and express do it that very moment. Let me tell you NO one is bothered who you are and what you think so why not express yourself freely. Live for yourself, your soul, your heart, your body, your being as a natural force which is part of GOD. Just let yourself GO….

In our Life circle as I said earlier every second counts till we depart from this world. And the only thing which is ours is- “OUR OWN SOUL”. Rest everything we will leave here. When we  start living every second of our existence it is actually our soul, our atma which gets happy and nourished. So let us pledge to ourselves that our ultimate aim is to nourish our soul. The more and more we do that, the better our state of mind will be. As is said happiness cannot be bought. It is there inside you,all which needs to be done is to experience it. It is present with you right now “also” as you are reading this article. Just smile, take a deep breath ,close your eyes and think about everything nice which you did. You will be happy immediately,the same very second. Just keep enjoying your life as it comes to you without getting into deeply on how, why and what is happening to you. It is Life with all its colors. And it is yours. Only you can change it and no one else. So be ready. Get, set and go……!!!

  4. So true! I think people got paranoid and lost their confidence about life! Why worry - there is nothing one can do about pandemic - be safe! Try to protect yourself and others! Leave the rest to God!
