Blog – 21 Lessons learnt from Loss

Live today as it were your last…

Day 13 of 21

13 May 2022

If you lived each day as it were your last, how different would your day be? Would you want to make the most of your day? How about your interactions with your friends and family? How different would that be?

If tomorrow is not promised for anyone, why don’t we live each day as if it were our last?

After my mum left, I used to attend a meditation centre each week. The teachings were based on the Buddhism way of life and living. I got a lot of peace and comfort from the teachings as it answered many of my questions about life. The idea of living each day as if it were your last came from there. Before this, I had never thought about it. But the more I thought about it, the more it made me realise how much more fulfilling my day would be if I lived on this way.

I personally would make more effort to make the most of the day. I would also make sure all my encounters with family and friends were always positive, leaving no ill feeling. I would take on tasks and finish them as much as I could. I wouldn’t put off things for later if I could do them today. For me, this was and is a very important and valuable life lesson.
