We live in an era where the only thing that seems to matter is taking quick action. Unfortunately, this applies to all aspects of our lives. Whether we're at a restaurant, shopping, or working, everything has to be done quickly. It seems that the faster we do things, the more control we believe we'll have over them. Sadly, we're forgetting to enjoy life. We have so many things on our minds and around us that we focus only on material things, neglecting the spiritual—what truly fills the soul. This fast-paced environment prevents us from seeing the precious time we're wasting by not enjoying and spending time with family, friends, or even ourselves.

When we reflect on this, it reminds us of how people who live in the mountains long for the beach, and those who live by the sea yearn for the mountains. We need to stop this constant rush and enjoy what we have at our fingertips. If you live surrounded by mountains, enjoy them—plan outings with friends, family, or even by yourself, and go camping at higher elevations to see the world from above.

If you live by the sea, take time to visit the beach, enjoy the ocean breeze, the sand, the sun, and the waves. Let's not allow this fast-paced environment to consume us or drown us. Let's rise above it and try to savor the world we have. Don’t let the current sweep us away. Money is necessary for living, but it’s not everything. Let's go out and refresh our view with this beautiful planet we have.

Remember to pack your sunscreen and all beauty icons you need, and don’t forget your canopy.
