Live as if you will never have time tomorrow, learn as if life will never end.

Good morning, friends. How are you all?
There are some words that at first seem like a very ordinary line. But one day, suddenly,y those words stand in front of me like a mirror of life. “Live as if you will die tomorrow, learn as if you will always live” — this saying is now not just a saying for me, but a way of life.

Earlier, I used to delay everything very much. I used to think — there is plenty of time, if I don’t do it today, I will do it tomorrow. I used to postpone calling my loved ones, doing my hobbies, or speaking my mind — everything. But some small events in life made me realize that,t in fact,t time does not stop for any of us. Since then, I try to enjoy every day a little. Sitting quietly with a cup of tea in the morning, suddenly sending a message to an old friend, or laughing and having fun with my family — these small moments are now the most precious to me.

At the same time, I have understood that life is not fulfilled by living only in the joy of today. There is a different joy in learning. Earlier, I thought that learning meant being limited to books. But now I see that learning to understand people, accepting my mistakes, and trying new things — these are also big lessons. Sometimes learning a new recipe, sometimes learning a new skill — these small lessons change me from within.

Sometimes I ask myself — if today were the last day of my life, would I have spent it well? This question makes me aware. I also think — if I live much longer, would I have learned something new today? These two questions have become two sides of my life.

I think that the most beautiful balance in life is here — living today with all my heart, and developing myself a little bit every day. If you only think about the future, today's joy is lost, and if you only focus on today, the future can become empty. So I try now — enjoy today's sunset, and have the desire to learn something new for tomorrow.

What I finally understood is that life is not a big mystery. If we live with love, respect time, and maintain a desire to learn, then every day becomes meaningful. How long we live is not in our hands, but how we live each day and how we change ourselves is entirely our own decision.
