It's not about where you want to go, it's about where you are now

A view from my beach, Point of Pines, Revere, MA

Check your social media feeds. It's filled with tweets, statuses of I can't waits, so pumped tos, looking forward tos and other proclamations of how awesome life is. 

I have scaled back my gloating content, as I call it. I don't care where you're going. I don't care that you're moving here. I don't care what happened last night. 

Well, I do care about all that, but let me explain.  

We soend so much time talking about what's happening and what will happen. These moments are shared a zillion times a day. Here's the catch: you might care but no one else gives a rats ass what you're up to.  

So my advice, live in the moment. Take it all in. It's ok to keep your memories floating around in your head as opposed to in an album on Facebook.  

Now, please excuse me as I have some instagramming to do.
