I'm sitting here trying to work on my computer but am not getting too far mostly because I have to use the trackpad on the laptop rather than the mouse. Why? Cleo has inserted herself right next to me where the mouse would usually go. I don't mind.
One of the best parts of my life is Cleo, my little cat, and she's never any trouble to me...even when she's sometimes a little trouble like pressing buttons on my computer with her face as she naps. Having these moments are important as I know that one day I'll not have her around to spend these moments with me. It makes me sad but that's the reality so I make the most of my time with her.
Sometimes I see people wasting moments that could be, and should be, more valued and even cherished. An example is a parent staring into their phone on Facebook while their kids play at the playground rather than engaging with the kids. Sure, a simple moment and there'll be many more but what if there isn't? I wonder if that parent would look back with regret.
I'm not inclined to set myself up for potential regrets later especially considering that I one hundred percent know that my time with Cleo is limited. It's the same with other things; I'm pragmatic, a realist, and know that nothing is forever so I remain as engaged as I can.
I wonder what you'll regret?
