Do you know that feeling you get when you approach :
the last cookie in the bag (which is probably your favourite)
last spoonful of icecream
last bite of overdelicious cake
last sip of drink
last lick off that fudge/icicle
Is it better to keep looking in the bag or on the plate of whatever you're having so you know when it is approaching the end? Do you get a better satisfying feeling when it's over? If you knew it's the last bite/sip/lick would you savour it more? Does the saying 'treat each cookie like it's your last' apply to life's 'treat everyday like it's your last'?
If we knew what tomorrow brings, wouldn't that take all the fun and joys from 'living' in its truest sense? The fact that we can't prophesize the future is a wonderful thing, it makes us more cautious of our actions and mindful of the fact that we 'reap what we sew'. We get disappointments or happiness tomorrow from our actions today.
The next time your having your favourite 'edible' item, and you approach the end, think of your day's worth... was it good enough to call it a day or do you see where you can make changes to make tomorrow better?
