Its All Over So Soon

I hope everyone is greeting the spring with as much anticipation and excitment as I am. Warmer weather has always drawn me. Ever since I was a kid growing up in south Texas, I have loved the hot sun and warm breeze of summer.
There is so much to be done and enjoyed. The beach, surfing, heading to the lake, wakeboarding, fishing, weekends on the motorcycle all lay just ahead in the coming weeks. Wow, I cant wait!
As I prepared for my day today, I was reflecting on all the wonderful days I have spent in the warmth of the sun. The Beach Boys song comes to mind I am immediately transported back to my teenage days, tearing up the town in Corpus Christi.
It dawned on me though that the best days are truly ahead. Sure, we can reflect and enjoy memories but we should not live in them. I like to say that the best weekend I ever had is NEXT weekend. Always leave yourself something to look forward to.
I hope everyone is gearing up for the best summer ever. Remember that this ride is all over so soon. Enjoy each moment of it. Live for today, live for tomorrow.
