"I'm no longer waiting for someone else
To make my day.
I make my own day, every day.
I have reached a stage in my life where I realize
Just how precious my time is.
I am aware that the clock is ticking,
So I want to make the moments count.
I still have much to explore and learn.
We're never too old to learn a new skill
Or try things we've never dared to try before.
There's still much to be written in this book.
Empty pages waiting to be filled with
New stories.
Each chapter a revelation of how I made
The most of my days.
And, I'm going to try and enjoy every minute.."

There comes a time when you stop waiting¡ªfor the perfect day, the perfect opportunity, the perfect person to walk in and change everything.?
You realize that your life isn¡¯t on hold. This moment, right now, is your life. And how you choose to meet it matters.
I no longer wait for someone else to bring me joy or give me permission to live fully. I wake up and decide¡ªtoday is mine.
?I choose to make it meaningful. Not because everything is perfect, but because I am here, and that is enough reason to begin.
Time has softened me in some ways and sharpened me in others. It has shown me what is fleeting and what is worth holding onto.?
I now know that laughter shared with a friend, the courage to try something new, the grace to forgive myself for old mistakes¡ªthese are the things that shape a rich life.
There are still blank pages ahead, and I¡¯m not afraid of them anymore. I see them as space¡ªsacred space¡ªfor adventure, growth, and unexpected joy.
?I will fill them with curiosity, bold choices, quiet mornings, and moments of real presence. And in doing so, I will not just exist¡ªI will live.
No, I¡¯m not waiting anymore. I am writing my story in real time. And every day, I will do my best to make it worth reading.
