Grasping the Wonderful

My mother used to say, "don't worry, life isn't passing you by" when I had one of those days where I felt like I was missing out on, well, life. This generally pertained to travel and the fact that I want to travel all over, just haven't done it yet. But recently I got to thinking about life and all that we miss out on because we wait too long. Why is it that some of us have the mentality that there might always be something better out there? Especially when something wonderful is right in front of us. They say that if you sit on the tracks too long you'll get run over, but if you sit beside the tracks too long, amazing opportunities will pass you by. Life is happening now. We can't wait for it to start. It already has and if you aren't living it, you're missing out.
