Nobody can promise you tomorrow with surety except God. Forget about fortune tellers and those who practice witchcraft. All you have is this hour or moment to do something reasonably good.
We often hear this statement “live life like there’s no tomorrow.” This may sound lovely to most of us but as sweet as it sounds, it is very controversial. Life tomorrow is unpredictable unless the Spirit of God reveals or there is a prophecy from God. To face the fact, we need not live our daily normal lives on prophecies.
Many people don’t care about whatever may happen tomorrow. In view of that, they live a careless life. I hope you are not one of them. You see, the very life you have today is priceless. I mean nothing can buy it. So take very good care of yourself while you are having your wild parties and other activities.
It Is already rolling out. Look at the sunshine giving us a beautiful morning and hope of a lovely day. Being alive is simply awesome. It is one of the greatest gifts anyone could have. So be happy and enjoy that life.
Whoever coined this statement that you should live life like tomorrow will never come has some good reasons to justify his claims but I don’t recommend just living life like there is no tomorrow.
Oh well, it is about enjoying the present as if that is everything you have. However, there are things that prove that tomorrow is not promised. So don’t be so sure of tomorrow; it doesn’t belong to you.
I think the main point here is to help you forget about your pains, suffering, and worries. It makes sense that way. Release some happy hormones and be in a good mood.
In this post, I would like to discuss with you why you must be very vigilant spending the 24hrs you spend in a day. You can’t pretend tomorrow will never come so you will drink all the little water in your “water bottle” whiles you are on an expedition.
Oh yes, it is good to enjoy life and be part of the thousands to millions of people who are spending some time on fun and relaxation. Just be wise and know that you are causing any harm to your future.
Or perhaps spend all your monies partying and having fun. This very point of view brings us to the differential concepts between HOPE, FAITH, and CONFIDENCE.
“Let today be the day you stop being haunted by the ghost of yesterday. Holding a grudge & harboring anger/resentment is poison to the soul. Get even with people…but not those who have hurt us, forget them, instead get even with those who have helped us.”
—Steve Maraboli
Tomorrow will come but not a promise to anyone. Taking this into consideration the concept of LIVING LIFE LIKE THERE’S NO TOMORROW is justified. How?. None of us knows exactly what will happen tomorrow: I mean from the first hour to the 24th hour.
All your plans could go wrong. So if you have today why not enjoy the best out of it and make the best of it with CAUTIOUSNESS.
JUSTIFICATION: Tomorrow Might Be Too Late
To live life like there’s no tomorrow must be embraced by those who most believe they have the privilege to make a difference in their lives. That is, in a way that will:
1. Heal their Pains:
Pains could be physical or psychological. There are a couple of therapeutic ways to ease your emotional discomfort. It could be a broken heart, disappointment, stress, anxiety, etc.
Yes, to kill your worrying instantly you need to have fun, enjoy your favorite hobby like nobody’s business. It doesn’t guarantee you to go extreme to maximize your sorrows. Life is simple and surely you have the right to enjoy each moment.
2. Fulfill their faith/beliefs:
It’s very unfortunate a number of people who belong to certain cults have been brainwashed to believe that there is nothing like “afterlife” and “judgment.”
This breeds a life full of immorality, lawlessness, and perversions. They have nothing to worry about accounting for their actions powered by their carnal minds. Heaven is right here on earth now, they say to themselves.
So the moment they hear ” live life like there’s no tomorrow: their desire to continue killing the day with their carnal minds is fueled up.
