Living in the Present

Find Joy in Every Moment.

By Sumaira KanwalPublished about a year ago 1 min read

In the whisper of the dawn’s first light,

A moment blooms, fresh and bright.

The past, a shadow that softly fades,

The future is a dream that patiently waits.

With every breath, feel the pulse of now.

The here and the heart, let it show you how.

Each fleeting second, a treasure to hold,

A story unfolding, waiting to be told.

Forget the burdens that weigh on your mind.

Let go of the worries that chain and bind.

For joy lies in laughter, in sunlight’s warm glow,

In the rustle of leaves, in the soft, gentle flow.

Taste the sweetness of coffee, hear the birds sing,

Embrace the stillness that presence can bring.

The world spins in chaos, yet here you stand still,

With open arms, embracing life’s thrill.

Dance with the moments; don’t let them slip by.

In the tapestry woven, let each thread tie.

For life is a canvas, and today is the hue.

Paint it with colors of all that is true.

So breathe in the beauty, the love, and the grace.

In the art of now, find your sacred space.

Each heartbeat a reminder, each sigh a delight,

Living in the present, let your spirit take flight.
