Live for the moment

Having struggled with depression and perfectionism I have learned to take one moment at a time. I try to find joy in that moment, even when my mind wants to wander off to issues, I try to come back to the moment I am in. I love this saying and photo. Praying for you all, that you try to live one moment at a time too. Hugs!

I focus on the fact that each moment is a gift from God. He wants us to enjoy the moments He has given us.

Blessing!

Hello lovetodance, that's a great philosophy to have and one I too, try to foster. We can't alter the past, so no point dwelling on it. Whilst the future is always unsure. So we must live in the present. My best wishes for your kind thoughts. 😊🌻✌️

Beautiful saying & picture! Very true also! Thank you! Have a beautiful day!!! XXX
