What are you waiting for? Live life to the fullest. We are not promised tomorrow, so enjoy today.

We believe that life will be 1 after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are discouraged that the kids aren’t 2 enough and we’ll be more pleased when they are. After that, we’re discouraged that we have teenagers to 3 . We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our 4 will be complete when we get a nicer car, when we have our 5 house, when we are able to go on a nice vacation, when we retire, when we win the lottery(彩票).

The 6 is, there’s no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, 7 ?Your life will always be filled with challenges. It’s best to admit this to yourself and decide to be 8

right now.

So, 9 every moment that you have. Recognize that each 10 you take is a gift and be 11 . Remember that time waits for no one. So stop 12 until you finish school, until you go back to school, until you 13 the weight, until you have kids, until your kids 14 the house, until you start work, until you retire, until you get 15 , until you get divorced(离婚), until Friday night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home, until your car or home is 16 , until spring, until summer, until fall, until winter, until you’ve had a drink, until you

17 , until you are born again—to decide, that there is 18 better time than right now to be happy.

Happiness is a(n) 19 , not a purpose. So, work like you don’t need 20 , love like you’ve never been hurt, and dance like no one’s watching.
