Why has it always meant to me that living life to the fullest means you must do everything right now and rush. I understand there is no day but today but that doesn't mean you shouldn't enjoy something the way it is. I will give an example. I am dating this guy named Mike. I like him very much. We've been dating for a little over a month. I like him a and normal Jenn would be freaking out thinking why have we haven't talked about where this is going or see if the next level is coming. I like him and I know he likes me so I honestly just want to leave it at that and enjoy his company for the time being. Which is very unlike me. When I was thinking this I thought if this guy is "the one" (which by the way I refuse to believe there is just one, but that is a different blog at another time) then I have my whole life to be with him. So, I should enjoy getting to know him and after a few months take it from there Or if he isn't "the one" then why would I rush into a relationship with someone in which it is doomed to fail. Why should I not just take what we have for now and see where it goes.
This doesn't just go with relationships. I see it with my job as well. I haven't been looking for another job yet even though I hate my job immensely because I want to see where I go with this company for a year. If it works out well I'll stay, if not, then I'll look. At least then I'll have more to put on a resume and say on a interview.
My point being yes it is very important to take advantage of every opportunity, live life like it is your last day on earth by complete ling your bucket list and telling the people you care for how you feel. The whole point of living life to the fullest is to remind you to not take things for granted. Sometimes the only way to not take for granted is to not rush good things, or see where an opportunity will take you even after a year. Because if your to busy trying to see the big picture you forget the small details.
I will always try to take advantage of every opportunity that arises. I will try to complete my bucket list. But I will also try my very hardest to takes things as is and enjoy things as they come. Sometimes going with the flow is living life fully.
