In those moments, when you realize how full your life is, pause. Give yourself time to really be present and focused on nothing else. Commit as much as you can to memory (there will be times you will reach for those long since passed seconds, minutes or hours), but most especially fix your attention to how that realization makes you feel.
We get through the days with the desire to continue living for as long as we possibly can because of those moments; those exact emotions of intense gratitude and peace. Stockpiling as many as we can bolster our strength to keep looking toward the future, while letting go of fear and negativity in our present.
Never stop collecting experience. Your life and ability to claim happiness depend on being able to want both.
