Simply enjoy

Some things you can change, some things you must accept and endure. Some things you can simply enjoy.

Without the need to capture, to possess, to preserve or to modify, you can simply enjoy. Without having to impress yourself or anyone else, you can simply enjoy.

Let go, and enjoy the sound of water tumbling over the rocks. Delight in the experience of children playing as they will, without being coached or coddled or scolded.

Enjoy the moment in the moment. Enjoy not having to save it for later, confident that there will be other moments you can enjoy.

Enjoy when everything goes as you planned and even when everything doesn’t. Enjoy being able to enjoy, whatever each day may bring.

Joy is a powerful state to be in. Gently guide yourself there, and enjoy.

— Ralph Marston
