Welcome to THIS edition of GOOD QUESTION, brought to you exclusively by THISent.com! I’m your host, “Word Heavyweight Champion” Mr. Joe Walker.
Throughout my illustrious career as an entertainment writer and journalist, I’ve been blessed with opportunities to speak with many notable and famous persons. One of those is writer, minister and gospel singer Myesha Chaney.
During our conversation I asked Myesha THIS good question: How would you encourage someone to slow down to pay closer attention to what’s happening around them?
She answered, “In my own experience, having been around death, loving people so much, losing people, having things and losing things, it creates this profound desire to take each step and enjoy it.
I would encourage a person, one so looking forward to the future, to appreciate the now. Think about what the 70-year-old you would say to the you today. Get as much as can from life and appreciate the moments that you do have, and not be overly confident you’re going to get to the 90s and the 100s.
Some of us become so goal-focused, that becomes the only thing in our lives. We have family, we have loved ones, we have opportunities, we have people hurting, we have people dying, we have so much in our daily lives that we overlook trying to reach our own personal goals that we forget the whole purpose of living.” |THIS.
